A future imagined

Standard
Saturday 2nd November 

A future imagined
Bright and clear
Yet echoes call
From yesteryear
Dreams rose up
Bright and new
Yet shadows linger
Anguish too

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

St Ives harbour

In the realm

Standard
Friday 1st November 

In the realm of reflective minds 
I wander aimlessly
Through forests of contemplation
Where thoughts flow endlessly

Lost in a labyrinth of doubt 
Seeking the answers I crave
In the shadows of uncertainty 
Pounded by wave after wave

This mind a battlefield
Where ideas clash and collide
Delving into depths of wisdom
Seeking truths that guide

Each question leads to another
Each answer breeds more doubt
Yet pressing ever onwards
Seeking knowledge inside and out

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

The harbour this morning

Towering clouds

Standard
Thursday 31st October 

Towering clouds
Rise vast and grey
Sculpted giants
Of silvering decay

They loom above
In silent might
Casting shadows
Stealing light

Slowly shifting
They drift and sway
Carving new shapes 
In the fading day

Beneath their gaze
The world grows still
Hushed by their height
Caught by their will

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

St Ives this morning
Low tide in the harbour

Journeying

Standard
Tuesday 29th October 

Journeying into
The realm of thought
Where Why, Wherefore
And If only are sought
Within that land 
We might find
The truths hidden
Deep in the mind

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

What was left behind

Standard
Monday 28th October 

What was left behind
In the quiet wake of days
Are echoes of laughter
And soft, familiar ways

Traces of moments
Lingering in the air
The warmth of a memory
A touch, a whispered care

Footprints fading
Yet deep within the mind
There’s a part of you
In all you left behind

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Sunny Dorset

Standard
Sunday 27th October 

Sunny Dorset, clear and bright
Fields of green and cliffs of white

The coastline sparkles, wild and free
Waves rolling in across the sea

Golden hills and blooming lanes
Sunlit paths with leafy domains

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Leaving St Ives this morning
Driving past Honiton
On to Dorset

Grasp it

Standard
Saturday 26th October 

For those who grasp it
The world can be a stage
A place where dreams
Become reality, not just a page
Taking risks
Embracing the unknown
Their determination
So brightly shown

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Sunny

Come what may

Standard
Friday 25th October 

In the light
We dance, we laugh, we shine
In the shadows
We linger, seeking a sign
Yet through it all
Somehow we find our way
Through sighs and smiles
Come what may

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Bright and breezy

Opportunity

Standard
Thursday 24th October 

In the realms of life
There lies a positive pathway
Opportunity
Golden bright, shining every day
It knocks on doors
It whispers in the breeze
Guiding towards
All those dreams, with ease 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum
