A symphony of moments

Standard
Friday 26th May 

A symphony of moments
A vibrant seaside choir
With nature's rhapsody
And dreams that never tire
Warm sunshine at low tide
As many children play
A tapestry of bliss
Captured in the bay

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

Another beautiful day
Porthmeor Beach
A chilly wind blows across the sand
A busy Wharf
Away from the crowds in the church gardens, for coffee and cake
St Ives Parish Church
St Ives Bay looking towards Hayle Towans
A little windy for the pleasure boats to take tourists out in the bay

In the bustling harbour

Standard
Thursday 25th May 

In the bustling harbour
Children dance and play
Their laughter like music
Brightening the day

Colourful fishing boats
Add to the tranquil scene
Those painted hulls
Will sail on waters serene

Wet sand beneath toes
A canvas of delight
Footprints and memories
Intertwine and take flight

Ice creams in hand
Sweet indulgence in the air
Melting joys on tongues
A moment beyond compare

Beneath shade of umbrellas
People find respite
Sharing stories and laughter
Their worries are slight

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

A sunny, busy day

The bliss

Standard
Wednesday 24th May 

The bliss
Of a slow lifestyle
Savouring
Moments, so worthwhile
Moving
At a leisurely pace
Beneath
The sun's warm embrace

Love you so much

St Ives this morning
Low tide in the harbour
Looking along the Wharf
A busy Kitty’s Corner

In this moment

Standard
Tuesday 23rd May 

In this moment
Time stands still
The world outside fades
As we fulfill
The essence of existence
Simple and pure
A refuge of tranquility
Love that will endure

Love you so much

What we had

Quietly cherishing what we had
Never forgetting the love we share

They're a part of us, always there

Bath Cricket Ground
River Avon
Pulteney Bridge
Parade Gardens and the Empire Hotel
Bath Abbey
Time for coffee and cake
It’s good to relax
Such a beautiful day
Pulteney Bridge
Lovely weather
Blue skies
A large tree trunk has been caught in the weir
Union Jack of flowers
The car has broken down, so we’re waiting for a breakdown man to diagnose and fix the fault!
But we’ve found a good location to sit….

The light fades slowly

Standard
Sunday 21st May 

The light fades slowly
Into shades of red and pink
Feeling grateful for this time
As the day begins to sink

So here's to sunset vibes
An ice cold beer in hand
Blue skies and swaying trees
And moments that are grand

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

St Ives this morning
Wispy cirrus clouds
An ice cold beer 🍺

Taking opportunities

Standard
Saturday 20th May 

Taking opportunities
Seizing the day
Embracing chances
That come my way
For life's gifts
Meant to receive
To cherish, to learn
And to believe

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Angel’s trumpet (Brugmansia) on the way down to Porthmeor Beach
Low tide
A few holidaymakers on the beach
Quite a strong breeze
The Digey. A link between Porthmeor and the harbour
Low tide in the harbour
Sheltered in Kitty’s Corner
Lovely blue skies today
Saturday sailing

Realm of dreams

Standard
Friday 19th May 

In the realm of dreams
Their spirit soars
A romantic's heart
Forever it roars
With visions vast
The mind takes flight
Painting horizons
In hues of light

Love you so much

Grey skies this morning and cooler

In a world so vast

Standard
Thursday 18th May 

In a world so vast
Where troubles may abide
There lies a realm
Where warmth and peace reside
A path I shall weave
With strides so true
Of contentedness
And the air we breathe through

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

Hazy sun this morning

The sun sets low

Standard
Wednesday 17th May 

The sun sets low
The day grows old
We reminisce
On stories told
The memories
Remain so bright
With the joy
That filled our sight

Love you so much

A drive to Helston
Sunbeams through branches
