Memories light the way
On the darkest road of grief
Stumbling along awkwardly
Knowing cancer is a thief
Your time upon this earth
Certainly was far too brief
.
Thinking of you
Missing you
Remembering you
Loving you

Yellow rose in our garden
Godetia
Lil’s rose (a cutting from our next door neighbour about thirty years ago, has produced an abundance of these pink roses)
Over the rooftops to the harbour
Sunday 26th July
.
Memories are keeping you alive
Helping your story to survive
Within my heart you will thrive
Holding on to the love, I’ll strive
To allow your soul to revive
.
Remembering you always
Love you sweetheart

Overcast and muggy this morning
Saturday 25th July
.
A thief of normal
A missing that can’t be found
A hammer to the heart
Emotional battleground
.
Only a memory away
My precious Angel son

Behind the flowers, a foggy harbour
Friday 24th July

Moving through
The heartbreak
Of your loss
.
Moving through
The heartache
A bridge I cross
.
Thinking of you
Missing you
Remembering you
Loving you

Indescribable feeling
Overwhelming pain
Unexpected situation
That’s grief’s domain

Missing you today

Wednesday 22nd July

A walk down to the beach
To sit and have a coffee
Watching all the tourists
On holiday, so carefree
No social distancing
“Nothing’ll happen to me”
We’re placed above the sand
Away from anybody
Safe and enjoying the view
Gazing at the turquoise sea
.
All the while thinking of you
Our fun times together
Wondering, wishing, hoping
We’ll be connected forever
.

Porthmeor Beach, West
Looking towards the Island
Windbreaks, tents and parasols
Low tide, and a perfect blue
Just below the café
School’s out
Lifeguards on duty
Sitting in the shade
Tuesday 21st July
.
Together
When you arrived upon this earth
Together
When you took your last breath
I held you then
I hold you now
Forever
Together
.
Love you poppet

The most wonderful memory
That I keep in my heart
Is my darling Angel son
Ensuring we’re never apart
.
Love you sweetheart

Sunday 19th July
.
We’re living every single day
Without you right beside us
You left so many memories
Slipping away, making no fuss
.
Precious Angel son
Now forever young

Saturday 18th July
.
Looking for you everywhere
Next to you I stand and stare
Wish you were just over there
Hiding with your teddy bear
You must know how much I care
All my love I want to share
But you’ve vanished into thin air
And I’m stuck with a nightmare
All that’s left: your empty chair
.
Thinking of you
Missing you
Remembering you
Loving you
Precious Angel son

Our garden roses
Giving a splendid display
Beautiful blooms
So many petals
