Friday 8th May
.
You are always here
In delightful dreams
And tender thoughts
.
Always close by
With marvellous memories
The special sentiments
.
Forever beside me
With heartfelt hopes
And whispered wishes
.
Love you forever
Beloved Angel son

Thursday 7th May
.
We only separated
To meet up again
You’re not really gone
Memories keep me sane
.
Thinking of you
Missing you
Remembering you
Loving you

West End at low tide
Porthmeor Beach looking towards the Island
The harbour
A quiet, sunny corner
Fishing boats
Very quiet today
Beautiful blues
Wednesday 6th May
.
Growing with grief
Living with loss
Persevering with pain
.
Journeying with joy
Succeeding with sorrow
Functioning with force
.
And I’ll make it through
Because of you
Sweet baby blue
.
Precious Angel son
Now forever young
Darling loved one

Looking down on the town this morning
At the top of Barnoon Cemetery
Looking towards the sea
Tuesday 5th May
.
You’ll always be near
Your fingerprints are here
Never to disappear
Smudged into the veneer
.
Your footprints still there
Across the thoroughfare
I know they’re somewhere
As you fly through the air
.
Love you forever
Forget you never
Always together
For ever and ever
.

Monday 4th May
.
Feelings of sadness
Flow every single day
Even though I know
Happiness comes my way
.
Thinking of you
Missing you
Remembering you
Loving you

Sunday 3rd May
.
Every now and then
I pick a memory
Of you and I together
Prompting “remember me”
.
I might shed a few tears
And then share a smile
Because you’re still with me
Reflecting for a while
.
Thinking of you
Beloved Angel son

Saturday 2nd May
.
Seven years ago today
Alien blob was cut away
.
Melanoma diagnosis
Quite a fair prognosis
.
More surgery to lymph nodes
And that really hurt loads
.
Biposies, skin graft and scars
All added to my memoirs
.
Started on a clinical trial
Bloods, obs, scans and checks worthwhile
.
Lymphoedema a side effect
A small price to pay, I suspect
.
Sunglasses, big hats and sunscreen
Now preventing the unforeseen
.
Living with vigilance
To reduce the incidence
.
Thinking of you my darling
Precious Angel son

Broom from the garden
Porthmeor, West End
Looking towards the Island
Quiet in the harbour
No waves at all
Friday 1st May
.
May is here
May you be near
May you bring cheer
.
Maybe you may
Be able to say
Today it’s May
.
Thinking of you sweetie

Porthmeor Beach this afternoon
Thursday 30th April
.
Colours of tangled greenery
A canopy of lush leaves
New growth spurting upwards
Warming sunlight receives
.
Love you sweetheart
Beloved Angel son

Wednesday 29th April
.
And if I still cry
It means you still matter
A pain that never heals
When my heart did shatter
.
Love you poppet
Darling Angel son

A beautiful afternoon
Porthmeor Beach
Before the rains came
The Journey of My Left Foot (whilst remembering my son)
