In my heart you’re free

But I still miss you so
Dearest Angel son

A watery maze
Thursday 5th November
.
A watery maze
Of ripples in the sand
Where we’d walk
Gently hand in hand
Talking ’bout this ‘n’ that
Spontaneous, unplanned
Such a carefree time
Take me back to dreamland
.
Love you sweetheart
Beloved Angel son

Low tide
Porthmeor Beach this afternoon
Ripples in the sand
Wending their way to the sea
Sunny and bright
Rippling in the harbour
Much, much quieter ~ Lockdown Day One
Smeaton’s Pier
Reflections

Your life may have ended
Wednesday 4th November
.
Your life may have ended
But the love you left behind
Fills my heart and soul
Your memory I’ll always find
.
Love you forever
Forget you never
Always together
For ever and ever

A much quieter beach today
Man’s Head
People enjoying the November sunshine in the harbour

Seven years now
Tuesday 3rd November
.
Seven years now
I’ve been on a trial
Adjuvant treatment
It’s been so worthwhile
.
It’s not just skin cancer
Melanoma is vile
Spreading to the lymph nodes
Surgery changed my lifestyle
.
So, vigilance is key
Can’t be in denial
Up at five this morning
Hospital arrival
.
Scan then dermatology
Service with a smile
Found a small alienblob
Removal is vital
.
Excision in two weeks
Health to reconcile
I’ll be left looking like
Been bitten by a crocodile
.
Always thinking of you
My darling Angel son

A stranger to myself
Monday 2nd November
.
A stranger to myself
Not knowing who I am
Trying to determine
In every way I can
That face in the mirror
A fuzzy hologram
Slightly out of focus
Stuck in a traffic jam
.
Miss you poppet
Treasured Angel son

Weak sunshine after a misty wet start

Haunted
Sunday 1st November
.
Haunted by speculation
Taunted with wonder
Bewildered by thoughts
A lifetime to ponder
.
My sweetheart
My darling
Precious Angel son
Your star sparkling

Again and again
Saturday 31st October

Memories
Soften the pain
I revisit
Again and again
.
Thinking of you
My darling Angel son

The Christmas lights have been switched on early
To add a little cheer in these strange times
A late afternoon drive through the town

Time travelling
Friday 30th October
.
Time travelling for a brief memory
A vignette of a long held moment
Suspended gently in distant space
Our love the main component
.
Just miss you so much
My darling Angel son
xxxxx
Oct29
Love you so much
Thursday 29th October
.
Love you so much
Out of reach of my touch
To the moon and back
On an orbital track
Way beyond the stars
Past Jupiter and Mars
.
Thinking of you
Beloved Angel son
xxxxx
A quick walk down the hill to see the waves
High tide, red flags, not a lot of beach left
Bubbling white water
Half term holidaymakers
A good swell hitting the Island
A few surfers braving the pounding of the waves
The power of the waves rushing up the beach sometimes catches people out
Oct28
Up and down
Wednesday 28th October
.
Up and down
Smile then frown
Back and forth
Cold then warmth
Come and go
Fast or slow
Side to side
Show and hide
To and fro
Ebb then flow
.
Thinking of you
Beloved Angel son
