Little monkey

Standard

Thursday 16th February
  

Sometimes you were a little monkey

You’d shout and scream, scratch and swear

You might become really frustrated

Kicking out and pulling my hair.

  

Challenging times required much patience

Reasoning and talking softly

Mostly you would understand

Other times you were downright naughty.

  

You were such a complex character

But it’s what gave you your charm

Funny, with a great sense of humour

Who’d never do anyone any harm.

  

My cheeky little Angel in heaven

How I wish you were still here

Getting up to lots of mischief

Making us smile and bringing cheer.

  

Love you to the moon and back

Sweetheart Angel son

The beach this afternoon (stylised by Google Photos)

You cheeky monkey

The harbour, with many half-term holidaymakers about

Never forget you 

Standard

Wednesday 15th February
  

I’ll never forget you, my Angel

My heart beats for you.

  

I’m thinking of you, my sweetie

My soul enfolds you.

  

You’ll never be alone, my darling

In my dreams I see you.

  

I’ll carry you constantly, my boy

My world belongs to you.

  

I miss you a lot today, young man

Even though you walk beside me.

  

And I will miss you, my son

Today, tomorrow, and every day.

We’re leaning against the railings, looking across the harbour

Precious

Monday 13th February
   

My precious Angel in the clouds

Sending so much love to you

Pieces of my heart remain broken

But memories try to act like glue

Holding pieces tightly together 

Making sure we’ll win through.

  

Moon and back

Beyond the stars

Forever and always

Beloved Angel son.

So final

Standard

Sunday 12th February

   

We didn’t know it was going to happen

No warnings.

We didn’t watch you deteriorate

So unexpected.

You didn’t ever complain at all

No signs.

We weren’t ready to let you go

Just heartbreaking.

We didn’t plan for this

So final.

  

Love you forever and always

Darling Angel son

Everyday

Standard

Saturday 11th February
  

Every single morning I wish

I wish things had been different

That you didn’t have to leave so soon.

  

Every evening I miss you

“Night mum”, is heard no more

But I know you’ll be in my dreams.

  

Everyday I find myself looking for you

So, wherever you may be

Know that I am right there, with you.

  

Love you to the moon and back

Darling Angel son

Dear and sweet 

Standard

Friday 10th February
  

My precious son, dear and sweet

Dancing now with Angel feet

Flying high with feathered wings

With a voice that heavenly sings

Painting with colours all aglow

Filling skies with a bright rainbow

On fluffy clouds you lay your head

Wish you were here with me instead.

  

Love you

Miss you

The silence of you

Standard

Thursday 9th February
  

One hundred weeks of heartache 

One hundred weeks of Why?

I know you’re there in heaven

Just wish you were by my side.

  

Seven hundred days without you

Seven hundred days of pain

I’ll grieve for you forever

Until I can see you again.

  

Each morning’s just the same

Waking up and you’re not there

Reliving that terrible night

The silence of you is everywhere.

  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .

It’s Thursday. Again.

One hundred weeks ago

Seven hundred days ago

Since you took your last breath.

  

I miss you so much

Love you forever

Precious Angel

Beloved son.

An easterly wind still blows

  

Billowing clouds

Standard

Wednesday 8th February
  

Billowing clouds

And crashing waves

To talk to you

Is what my heart craves.

  

Across the sands

Shoes in the sea

Playing with the tide

You’d laugh with glee.

  

You’re everywhere

I turn today

As along the beach

You did play.

  

Walking around

Tracing your steps

Wondering what life

Will throw at me next.

  

Love you forever

My beach-walking Angel

Memories and Mementos

Standard

Tuesday 7th February
  

Memories and mementos

Keepsakes and scrapbooks

Always there forever

For precious little looks.

  

Photos and video

Certificates and awards

All collected with love

Your whole lifes’ records.

  

That is all I have

Of what is left of you

A rich treasure trove

Reminding me anew.

  

Love you forever

Forget you never

Missing you like crazy

My darling Angel baby.

Cold and breezy at the beach

Less windy in the harbour
