Through Picket Post

Standard
Wednesday 24th September 

Through Picket Post
And Stoney Cross
Memories of you
The one I lost

Driving through
The New Forest
Thoughts and sighs
My son, my dearest

Each bend and path
Recalls your smile
Though you're gone
You're here a while

As ponies graze
A peaceful scene
A reminder of what
Might have been

But love remains
A constant guide
Across the heathland
Where dreams reside

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

We’re Dorset bound

Standard
Tuesday 23rd September 

We're Dorset bound
Journey starts today
Across the miles
It's quite a way
Beneath sunny skies
And fields so green
A welcome sight
A peaceful scene
Those rolling hills
Where seas do gleam
A perfect place
To rest and daydream

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Take time

Standard
Monday 22nd September 

Take the time
To enjoy
Little things
Don't destroy
Happiness
Just to annoy
And wind up
A naughty boy
Who's unaware
But employ
Peace and calm
With joy ahoy

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum

Just standing here

Standard
Sunday 21st September 

Just standing here
In the midst of change
Embracing the unknown
Both wild and strange
For what really matters 
The need to understand
Is the journey itself
That is mostly unplanned

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

In quiet moments

Standard
Friday 19th September 

In quiet moments
When the chaos fades
Searching for truth
Amongst the barricades
Trying to assess 
What really matters
Where whispers of thought 
Explode into tatters

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Uttering words

Standard
Thursday 18th September 

Uttering words 
A soft release
Thoughts that seek 
A moment's peace

Expressing dreams
Both big and small
Responding to
Nature's call

Wondering still
With open eyes
At clouds above
In greying skies

Embracing change
The ebb and flow
Where small seeds
Of kindness grow

Love you so much
Beloved sons
Treasured Mum

Speaking

Standard
Monday 15th September 

Speaking of the past
The laughter and tears
Hopes that have blossomed
Over many years

When time is relentless
Bending for the heart
In the quiet of evening
As the day does depart

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum
