Thursday 20th March 

We wait and watch 
And softly dream 
Of sunlit vistas  
A vibrant theme 
The promise kept 
The wait is done 
Spring's gentle reign 
Has now begun 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Wednesday 19th March 

Branches bare 
Reach for the sky 
With hope that soon 
Buds amplify 
Each morning brings 
A softer glow 
As life prepares 
Emerge and grow 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 18th March 

An unraveling into chaos 
Mind monsters without pathos 
Emotions screaming, hidden anguish 
Recalling what was, demons to vanquish 

In shadows deep, they twist and turn 
Feeding on doubts, making spirits burn 
Yet within the tumult, a flicker remains 
A spark of hope to break those chains 

Through battles fought in silent night 
Seeking the dawn, the guiding light 
For though the mind may turn and toss 
Resilience rises from the loss 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons 
Treasured Mum

Monday 17th March 

With every dawn 
The world’s reborn 

Each petal kissed 
With gentle mist 

Flowers bright 
Springtime light 

Those colours bold 
Begin to unfold 

Love you so much 
Precious sons

Sunday 16th March 

Coffee brews slowly 
Its aroma a song 
A sip feels like comfort 
When the day feels long 

Birds chirp outside 
Melodious refrain 
Nature’s soft whispers 
A symphony again 

As afternoon lingers 
With sunlight aglow 
Breathing in stillness 
Letting thoughts flow 

A sunny Sunday 
Where time drifts away 
In the calming embrace 
Of a nice Beaujolais 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 15th March 

Crisp, clean air 
Against the face 
Blue skies stretch 
Over endless space 

Leaves they dance 
As sunlight gleams 
The world alive 
In waking dreams 

Yet within 
A quiet tune 
Whispers doubt 
Beneath the moon  

Sighs may linger 
Soft and low 
But in time 
They’ll gently go 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons
Treasured Mum

Friday 14th March 

Through fields of green 
And skies so wide 
Wandering forth 
No path to guide 

A breeze whispering 
So soft and low 
Wondering where 
The wild winds blow 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 13th March 

Although the past 
Is carved in stone 
The future's ours 
To call our own 

If only I'd known 
All those what ifs
To grasp each moment 
In life and exist 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Wednesday 12th March 

How can it be?
Ten years have passed
Since you were here
And breathed your last

Chemotherapy's toll
Finally took your life
Testicular cancer
Had spread so rife

So very much missed
No tomorrows for you
Your future dashed
So unexpectedly too

We miss you so much
Your smiles and laughter 
Unfortunately for you
No happy ever after

It was going so well
But treatment was brutal
You took it in your stride
The whole kit and caboodle

Hickman line fitted 
Etoposide, Cisplatin 
Vincristine, transfusions 
Bleomycin, Carboplatin 

Three and a half months 
Tolerating the pain 
The sickness, the hair loss
The merciless strain

The tumours in lungs
And those in the brain
Were surely shrinking
Cancer cells were slain

But on that Thursday night
You left this world
Your pain all forgotten
As angel wings unfurled

Yet laughter echoes still 
Smiles linger near 
Though tomorrow faded 
We hold you so dear 

And then came that day 
A sorrowful release 
Wings lifted you gently 
To infinite peace 

We miss you dearly 
Your presence, your light 
In our hearts, you remain 
Shining ever bright 

No matter how long 
As memories replay 
It will always feel 
Like yesterday 

Darling Angel son 
Now forever young

Tuesday 11th March 

If only I'd known 
The path ahead 
The silent words 
Left unsaid 

The fleeting moments 
Slipping by 
Like whispers lost 
Beneath the sky 

Those regrets 
Shadows at night 
Reminds me of
The fading light 

Of chances missed 
And time unspent 
Of love unspoken 
That I now lament 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum
