Goodnight my Angel

Time to dream

Look at the stars

See how they gleam

Touch the sky

Hold a moon beam

Close your eyes

Peace reigns supreme

  

Night night sweetheart

Beloved Angel son

Looking towards Man’s Head


The harbour ~ people still sitting on the beach

Carry you

Standard

Monday 2nd October

    

I can no longer hold you in my arms

No longer hold your hand in mine

No longer hold a conversation 

But I know up there your star does shine

  

Yet I can carry your memories with me

Carry your love to bring a smile

Carry your heart alongside mine

I can carry you for a long, long while

Far away

Standard

Sunday 1st October

     

Although you are so far away

I think about you every day

At night time too, you’re in my dreams

And that is just as sad as it seems

Nevermore will I see your face

Gone too​ soon to a heavenly place

  

Sweetheart Angel son

Now forever young

Pain

Standard

Saturday 30th September

     

Too young

To go

Too soon

  

Time doesn’t help

Time doesn’t heal

Time is not a medicine

   

The pain is there

It might be hidden

But there’s always pain

  

Sometimes

There are no words

To describe the hurt

  

The heart knows no time

Your heartbeat is there

Beating with mine

  

Precious Angel son

Pouring with rain, but many surfers in the sea

  

My sweet Angel

Friday 29th September

     

You are my sweet Angel

The bright stars in the sky

The white crests on waves

The hovering butterfly

  

You are my dearest darling

The warm shadows on the sand

The sunbeams beyond the clouds

The melody of a steel band

  

You are my little poppet

The diamond ring on my finger

The colours in a rainbow

The beautiful memories that linger

My sweet Angel

Sense

Standard

Thursday 28th September

    

I see your face in the clouds

I hear your voice in the wind

I feel your touch in the rain

I taste you in each chocolate brownie

I smell you when cooking roast dinner

And I sense your heart beating in mine

  
My darling Angel son

Bright afternoon before the rain

You

Standard

Wednesday 27th September

    

Thinking of you

As I always do

 

Missing you

I do that too

  

Loving you

My heart is true

  

Dreaming of you

It helps me get through

  

Holding you

I wish you knew

  

Memories of you

Come out of the blue

   

Imagining you

On wings you flew
