Praia da Luz

Standard
Sunday 24th August 

Another day
Another beach
Praia da Luz
Within reach
Golden sands
Ocean's hue
Breezes whisper
Skies so blue

Waves dance
Upon the shore
Footprints lead
To treasures more
In the sunshine
Worries fade
In this paradise
That we've made

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Such a pretty location
Lunch and a little libation
Time filled with elation
An afternoon's duration
With an ice cream sensation
This is our vacation
Alvor is a temptation

Lunchtime views

Lunchtime views 
A moment to breathe
As sunlight dances
On the sea beneath
Cerulean hues
Paint the open sky
Azure blues whisper
As the boats sail by

Lagos Portugal

Watercraft manoeuvres

Standard

Watercraft manoeuvres
Up and down the waterway
Taking all the tourists
On adventures in the bay
Whilst we saunter pavements
Enjoying an outdoor lunch
A little bit of shopping
Nutty ice cream to crunch

It’s back to the beach today

Standard
Monday 18th August 

It's back to the beach today
To while a few hours away
Upon sun loungers we lay
Watching the world at play
Shaded from the sun's ray
Wishing it's here we could stay

The waves crash upon the shore
A rhythmic and constant roar
Kids building castles galore
While seagulls circle and soar
Couldn't ask for anything more
With happiness we can ensure

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Sunday sojourn

Standard
Sunday 17th August 

Sunday sojourn
In Santa Luzia
A hum of life
All around
My son sits here
Laughter in the air
A rooftop bar
Where joy is found

Clinking bottles
A toast to the day
Refreshing beers 
With bubbling cheer
The world feels slower 
Worries fade away
In this moment
Everything is clear

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Praia Fluvial de Alte

Standard




Saturday 16th August 

In Alte's heart 
A haven lies
Praia Fluvial
Nature's prize
Near village quaint 
A mountain's space
A stunning swimming
Peaceful place
Picture the view
Where waters flow
Reflecting the sun's
Warm golden glow
Crystal-clear springs
Weaving tales of old
Dancing with shimmer
Bright and bold

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

An anchor graveyard

Standard
Friday 15th August 

The sun ascends
A golden eye
On Barril Beach
Beneath the sky
Near Santa Luzia 
Sands so bright
Begins a day
Of pure delight

There's something strange 
A sight to see
An anchor graveyard
Beside the sea
Where iron giants
Rest in peace
Their working days
Finding release

Old rusted hulks
In silent rows
A testament
To where time goes
Each tells a tale 
Of salty spray
And ships that sailed
On another day

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum
