Tuesday 14th June 

A new day 
A new beginning 
Feels like 
I could be winning 
Though this world 
Is set on spinning 
Out of control 
Sets alarms ringing 
Stop for awhile 
Troubles dimming 
Uplift to the sky 
With heart a-brimming 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons

Monday 13th June 

Slap bang in the middle 
Of happy, happiness 
A big, long sigh exhales 
With thoughts of tenderness 
Of long ago exploits 
With fun and cheerfulness 
Times no longer with us 
Intruding loneliness 
Memories made, so special 
Family togetherness 

Love you both so much 
My darling sons 
xxxxx 

Sunday 12th June 

Slow down, and breathe 
Notice surroundings 
I tell myself this 
On all of our outings 
Taking time to renew 
All those special things 
Restore and replenish 
See what calmness brings 

Love you both so much 
Forever and always 
Beloved sons

Saturday 11th June 

Being so very far apart 
Means we have to have patience 
We will see you again 
We must not be complacent 

Love you both so much 
Treasured sons

Friday 10th June 

Love you both so much 
Never, ever forget that 
Family is precious 
No matter where you're at 

Love you always 
My darling sons

Thursday 9th June 

Those new roses 
Make me smile 
And I think of you 
For a little while 
Just standing there 
Quite immobile 
Beneath the tree 
Colours most tactile 

Love you both so much 
Beloved sons

Wednesday 8th June 

Taking many photos 
Collected down the years 
Held safely in the cloud 
All darkness melts and clears 
Like a return ticket 
So nothing disappears 
It's the memory train 
Packed full of cheers and tears 

Love you both so much 
Forever and always 
Treasured sons

Tuesday 7th June 

Sometimes 
I need to retreat 
Far away 
With peace, to greet 
Silence 
Calmness complete 
Where noise 
Takes a back seat 
Knowing that 
Life can be sweet 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons 
xxxxx 

Monday 6th June 

Holding on 
Being strong 
Can't believe 
It's been so long 
Now you sing 
An Angel's song 
Up there with 
The Heavenly throng 
But, back here's 
Where you belong 
That you're gone 
Feels so wrong 

Love you both so much 
Beloved sons 
xxxxx 

Sunday 5th June 

An afternoon tea party 
At my mother's care home 
The Platinum Jubilee 
And Queen upon her throne 

Love you both so much 
Beloved sons
