Wednesday 25th October
My precious son
I’m missing you
There is nothing
That I can do
My sweetheart child
So far away
I think of you
Each night and day
My darling boy
Love you so much
I really wish
Our hands could touch
Treasured lad
Remembering
Up on a cloud
You’re slumbering
Beloved Angel
Up there you fly
I’m whispering
A lullaby

Half term holidaymakers enjoying the beach
Tuesday 24th October
I miss you so much
But I know you’re an angel
Life without you
Is just so painful
Love you forever
Forget you never
Darling son
Forever young

Monday 23rd October
When I came upstairs that evening
It was to kiss you goodnight
To tuck you in, smooth the covers
And then turn out the light
But when I came upstairs that evening
Just how little did I know
It would be to kiss you goodbye
And then I had to let you go
My darling
My son
My Angel

Dark skies over Hayle
Sunday 22nd October
You can’t see a broken heart
You can’t hear a silent scream
You can’t dry hidden tears
You can’t soothe a painful dream
But they’re always there
A perpetual flow of reminders
Coursing through our lives
Leaving us to be survivors
For every single moment
You are everywhere around
In my heart, in my head
When I am nowhere to be found
Love you so much my Angel
My precious son

Saturday 21st October
To Frank
One more minute
Another hour
Just one day
Wish I had the power
One more minute
Another night
A little more time
I’d make it right
One more minute
Another chance
To hold you close
Your smile, I’d glance
One more minute
Another sunrise
A golden sunset
Please open your eyes
One more minute
To have you here
To make memories
I’d keep you near
One more minute
That’s all I need
To say “I love you”
Heartfelt indeed
One more minute
I’d say to you
“Never forgotten”
So precious, that’s true
One more minute
One more kiss
One more hug
Perfect bliss
One more minute
Those times we had
I’d say “Thank you”
My darling lad
One more minute
What I wouldn’t give
To have you back
So you can live
One more minute
To take it all in
Knowing that soon
Pain will begin
One more minute
But now you’re gone
And in my heart
You’ll live on
Love Mum
Storm Brian approaches the south west….
Friday 20th October
The calm before the storm
Horses enjoying the beach
Freedom to roll in the sand
You’d be there stroking each
Admiring their wild spirit
With hide as smooth as a peach
I imagined you on horseback
My Angel, just out of reach
Thinking of you sweetie
Love you to the moon and back
Beyond the stars, around the world

Two horses brought down to the beach to exercise and enjoy the fresh air
The wind whipping up the tops of the waves ahead of storm Brian
Thursday 19th October
Your love will linger
Your memories are real
Your affection touched many
My heartbreak I conceal
Your achievements numerous
Your delight enchanted
Your laugh infectious
I took it all for granted
And then one day
You had no more tomorrows
Your life ended so suddenly
Leaving grief and sorrows
Missing my Angel
Darling son

Porthmeor Beach looking towards the Island
Porthmeor Beach looking westwards
A glimpse of sun on dull afternoon
High tide in the harbour
Wednesday 18th October
I’ve lost your future
I can’t go out and find it
Because it’s not there
You future ceased to be
Lives are forever shattered
Hearts remain broken
And nothing, nothing compares
To the pain of losing you
What would you have become?
Where would you be?
What would be making you happy?
Just wish you were here with me.
Love you sweetie
Forever thirty
On Angel wings
You’ve been set free

Many surfers and paddle boarders
Dull and overcast, but quite warm
An unfortunate incident on the harbour slipway….. whoops
Tuesday 17th October
The timeless rhythm of the sea
Capturing wandering thoughts
Of time spent whilst carefree
As streamlined aquanauts
Take my hand, together we’ll dive
Through subterranean caves
With azure oceans, feeling alive
Bursting above foaming waves
My darling Angel son
Sailing the seven seas
My love is carried to you
Across the gentle breeze

Many changing colours of the ocean
Aquamarine sea with windblown wave caps
Monday 16th October
It’s always there
It won’t go away
It’s a part of me
It’s there every day
It hits without warning
It’s not okay
It breaks my heart
It’s here to stay
Grief
Unless it’s happened to you
You’ll never know
You just haven’t a clue
Missing you like crazy
My darling Angel baby

View from the top of the town looking out to sea
Bright and breezy this afternoon
Somewhere out there a seal is surfing in the waves
The Journey of My Left Foot (whilst remembering my son)
