Saturday 6th November 

In my heart I'll take you 
Walking beneath the trees 
Raindrops softly float down 
Your hand, I gently squeeze 

Love you both 
Treasured sons

Friday 5th November 

Illuminated leaves 
Golden copper on trees 
Blue skies for a while 
Looking up with a smile 

Love you both 
Treasured sons

Thursday 4th November 

Carrying memories 
Is so much lighter 
Than holding onto grief; 
The comfort seems brighter 

Love you both 
My wonderful sons 
xxxxx 

Wednesday 3rd November 

Smiles aren't always 
Confident 
Tears are sometimes 
Jubilant 

Laughing can be 
Feigned 
A grimace 
Unexplained 

Those hidden feelings 
With private dealings 
You never really know 
Yet go with the flow 

Love you both 
Darling sons 
xxxxx 

Tuesday 2nd November 

My unconditional love 
Sparkles like stars above 
For both my treasured sons 
Precious, beloved ones

Love you both so much 
xxxxx 

Monday 1st November 

Raindrops gently falling 
Decorating the petals 
Beading crystals sparkling 
Diamonds and precious metals 

Love you both so much 
Treasured sons 
xxxxx 

Sunday 31st October 

The clocks went back 
Winter creeps in 
Dark afternoons 
Cold air on skin 

Love you both 
Treasured sons 
xxxxx 

Saturday 30th October 

Going out to dinner 
With sister and niece 
She's sixty on Monday 
Don't call the police! 
Far too many candles 
Cards on the mantelpiece 
Presents and messages 
And balloons to release 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons 
xxxxx 

Friday 29th October 

Cool Autumn breeze 
Blows golden leaves 
From quivering trees 
A branch striptease 
Released trapeze 
Scattering with ease 

Love you both 
Darling sons 
xxxxx 

Thursday 28th October 

It's come round again 
For my annual scan 
Breath in, staying calm 
Doing the best I can 
 
Results in next month 
Playing the waiting game 
Scanxiety's quite high 
Staying upbeat's the aim 

Seven years, on trial 
For melanoma 
Seems I've taken on 
A different persona 

BP's a bit high
Understandable 
Those internal fears
Quite irrational 

Vigilance and care 
When out in the sun 
For it could come back 
Bite you on the bum 

It's a sneaky thing  
This malignancy 
Try to live life with 
Capability 

Leaving this morning 
Seven forty five 
Home at five pm 
A long day, and drive 

Love you both 
Treasured sons 
xxxxx
