Sunday 15th January 

You're there, existing 
In all those silent spaces 
In every voiceless void 
Within the peaceful places 
Enclosed in each calm corner 
Behind smiles on friendly faces 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 14th January

Taking a moment 
To stop and look 
Stand for a while 
Close the guidebook 
See for myself 
Fears can be shook 
Dispelled, thrown out 
Completely unhook 
Breathing slowly 
Find a snug nook

Love you so much 
Beloved sons

Friday 13th January 

Small steps 
Going forwards 
To a goal 
Ever onwards 
Heart smiling 
Moving towards 
Better times 
Never backwards 
Making life 
More straightforward 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 12th January 

Raindrops softly descending 
Blurring the landscape outlines 
Smudging all the sharp corners 
Filling with abstract designs 

Love you so much 
Precious sons

Wednesday 11th January 

And now we're back to normal 
Thoughts of another getaway 
Are spinning around our heads! 
The sunshine seems so far away 

Grey winter days, so gloomy 
For sunshine, I'll pine away 
Looking back on photographs 
We were lucky to fly away 

And I'm sure we'll soon be back 
For another break away 
Sitting on a beautiful beach 
Like a happy castaway 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 10th January 

And we're driving home today 
But it's raining all the way 
Grinch Mk II came from the USA 
Replacing the one stolen on Christmas Day 

Love you so much

Monday 9th January 

Nearly ready to fly 
Across the sky 
Málaga bye bye 
A great big sigh 

We left in sunshine 
Didn't land in rain 
Really wish we were 
Back there again 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 8th January 

Luke and Talita 
This morning they left 
Driving to Portimão 
Five hours to the West 

We're packing up, too 
And flying tomorrow 
Sad to be leaving 
We'll be back, I know 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 7th January 

Off to Benalmádena 
A Brazilian restaurant 
Talita's from São Paulo 
But not sure what I want 
Then walking along the front 
For a Trocadero sunset 
Cocktails on the terrace 
Colours we won't forget 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 6th January 

A day of leisure 
Roving and roaming 
Along the boardwalk 
Children beachcombing 
The Day of Three Kings 
Holiday hoping 
Gifts and family time 
With much love showing 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum
