Friday 16th December 

Panic attacks 
Emotions to max 
Just can't relax 
The mirror cracks 

Total collapse 
The pain, it smacks 
Tearstains wet tracks 
Calm down, perhaps 

Watch time elapse 
A parallax 
Can't change the facts 
Hard falls the axe 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 15th December 

My head is a mess 
It's so filled with stress 
It'll fade, I guess 
There's much distress 
I ought to assess 
Try not to digress 
Need to decompress 
A little progress 
And I'll find success 
Work through the process 
It's hard nonetheless 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Wednesday 14th December 

A drive to Bristol today 
Taking Luke to the airport 
Back to Faro tomorrow 
The visit was quite short 
It was so good to see him 
But soon we'll need our passport! 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 13th December 

Today we said goodbye 
To our beloved Mum 
A respectful service 
Memories, and then some 

Until we're together 
We'll be with you wherever 
Love you mum forever 
Memories to treasure

Monday 12th December 

Baby steps 
What comes next? 
Quite complex 
After effects 
Tick box checks 
That protects 
Some objects 
Pay respects 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved mum

Sunday 11th December 

It's so complicated 
But I'm striving to find 
Peace and calm within 
With everything aligned 
Composing oneself 
Putting pain behind 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved mum

Saturday 10th December 

All together 
As a family 
Walking around 
Quite happily 

Love you so much

Friday 9th December 

And off we go to Bristol 
To collect younger son 
Flying in from Faro 
Colder weather's not fun! 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons

Thursday 8th December 

A rainbow in the morning 
Returns again this evening 
Shining brightly adorning 
Jewelled colours performing 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons

Wednesday 7th December 

Nothing to do 
But continue 
Feel a bit blue 
Quite lonely too 

Need pastures new 
A different view 
With hurdles few 
Dreams can come true 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved mum
