Saturday 27th January 

Maybe reflections 
In a puddle's stream 
Or the fading echo 
Of a napping daydream 
In the ordinary 
Find the extraordinary 
A tapestry of words 
In life's inventory 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 26th January 

Today's canvas 
A blank expanse 
What to write about 
Take a chance 
Pen dancing upon 
The paper's spread 
Ink weaving tales 
A narrative thread 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Dearest Mum

Thursday 25th January 

The rhythmic patter 
Of the gentle rain 
The sun's embrace 
On the window pane 
Whispers of wind 
Or a bird in flight 
Make endless stories 
In the day's soft light 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Dearest Mum

Wednesday 24th January 

Flickering flames 
A dance of light 
Glowing embers 
A mesmerizing sight 

Transfixed with awe 
In the log burner's gaze 
A new installation 
Spreading a warming blaze 

Hearth of comfort 
Where stories are spun 
Warmth that beckons 
Inviting everyone 

Gathering round 
The fire's embrace 
In the cozy glow 
A welcoming place 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Dearest Mum

Tuesday 23rd January 

Wet trees stripped of leaves 
Long fingers bare 
Stretching across the road 
In the damp air 

Entangling, skeletal limbs 
All intertwined 
Rocking and creaking 
A dance so designed 

Greeting each other 
With a woody sigh 
In that misty embrace 
Where spirits lie 

Nature's conversation 
A secret song 
In the world of the forest 
Where stories belong 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Monday 22nd January 

Sunshine returns 
A radiant calm 
Blue skies emerge 
A boundless charm 
The storm has passed 
Its echoes fade 
Tranquil moments 
Harmony's displayed 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 21st January 

Winter winds blow 
A haunting tune 
Creaking sounds 
Beneath the moon 
Waves topped with foam 
A turbulent display 
Hope it soon goes 
Leaving a quiet day 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 20th January 

An incoming storm 
A harbinger's call 
The wind will blow 
Branches may fall 

Cloudy skies 
A tempest brewing 
Chasing the horizon 
Nature's undoing 

The dance of gales  
Like a wild ballet 
A orchestra of chaos 
In the sky's display 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 19th January 

Chill air 
Paints the morning's breath 
Blue skies stretch 
A vast expanse, no depth 
Lost in thought 
A wandering mind 
In the quiet 
The universe entwined 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 18th January 

Your birthday's here 
There's an empty chair 
A void that whispers 
In the chill January air

Love for you resonates 
A timeless song 
In those memories 
Where echoes belong

In the gift of life 
And love's embrace
Finding solace 
Even in an empty space 

For birthdays hold 
Bittersweet times 
The love we carry 
Forever shines 

You should have been 
Thirty nine today 
What would you be like 
And what would you say? 

We miss you so much 
In our hearts forever 
Thinking of you often 
Forgetting you, never 

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

Love you so much 
Precious Angel son 
Dearest Frank
