Monday 6th October 

Early morning sunrise 
Flamingoes on the salt pans
Ilha de Tavira luncheon 
With toes in the sands 

Love you so much 
Precious sons

Sunday 5th October 

Sixteen years 
Have come and gone 
But in my heart 
You still live on 

Laughter and wisdom 
Your voice still clear 
In our adventures 
I feel you near 

Though time has taken 
Your presence away 
The memories remain 
And forever will stay 

My father 'Hank' 
Missing our fun and laughter 
The adventures and escapades 
4.2.1932 – 5.10.2009

Saturday 4th October 

Be brave, step forth 
Into the light 
Embrace the dawn 
Let dreams take flight 
Take risks that thrill 
Let your heart lead 
In every chance 
The courage you need 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 3rd October 

Thoughts like seabirds 
In frantic flight 
In closed rooms 
Both dark and bright 

A jumbled mess 
A scattered scene 
Where logic fades 
And doubts convene 

Ideas clash 
A noisy spree 
Yet calm resides 
Eventually 

The world outside 
A subtle call 
Dispelling shadows 
Standing tall 

The present waits 
A peaceful shore 
Where inner storms 
Rage on no more 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 2nd October 

Embrace the quiet 
Gentle grace 
Finding joy
In every place 

Dwelling within 
A peaceful mind 
Leaving the fretful 
Thoughts behind 

Breathing it in 
This gentle air 
Banishing sorrow 
Casting out despair 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Wednesday 1st October 

Believe 
In sunshine after rain 
Believe 
Erase all doubt and pain 
Believe 
A future bright and new 
Believe 
Because it all depends on you 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 30th September 

Being brave 
The path less known 
With each step 
Courage has grown 

Embracing the risks 
That life may send 
In every challenge 
Finding strength to mend 

Proud of the progress 
That is achieved 
For in the heart 
Much to be believed 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Treasured Mum

Monday 29th September 

The day is done 
The race is run 
The sun dips low 
With golden glow 
Fades into hues 
Of softer blues 
A slower pace 
Finds its place 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 28th September 

The world rushes past 
A blur on the run 
Sitting in this space 
Savouring the sun 
The air feels lighter 
Worries all fade 
This life that's unfolding 
Blissfully swayed 

Just sliding down 
Where silence reigns 
In the hush of evening 
Where calmness remains 
For in this low gear 
So truly alive 
The heart of the moment 
Will effortlessly thrive 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 27th September 

The world unfolds 
A winding track 
Listening inwards 
Or turning back 
With whispers soft 
An inner guide 
Our true selves 
Filled with pride 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Treasured Mum
