Cerulean skies

Standard
Wednesday 5th March 

Cerulean skies
So clear and crisp
Morning air sighs
With a subtle wisp

Golden light leans
On branches tall
A hush of spring 
A fleeting call

Clouds drift softly
In endless blue
A canvas bright 
A perfect hue

The breeze so light
Stirring the trees
Dancing gently
Newly budding leaves

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

A steady drive home

Standard
Tuesday 4th March 

A steady drive home
Through spring countryside
Blue skies to guide us
Quite a pleasant ride

White clouds drift by 
A peaceful sight
Beneath the vast
And endless light

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Olhão

Standard
Sunday 2nd March

Sunday in Olhão 
A tranquil delight
Beside the calm water 
A beautiful sight

Clouds drift like whispers 
And dance in the sky
When sunshine breaks through 
The shadows slide by

And in quiet thoughts
With a peaceful ease
A family Sunday spent
Beside the rippling seas

With the glow of the sun
Savouring the day
In the warmth of the moment 
Wishing we could stay

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

A beautifully sunny day

Standard
Saturday 1st March 

A beautifully sunny day
Begins to slowly unfold
At Cabañas de Tavira
The water sparkling gold

Alfresco lunch with family
In the bright sunshine glow
Moments of joy and love
Memories we'll never outgrow

Love you so much
Precious sons

A rainy morning

Standard
Friday 28th February 

Such a rainy morning
Muddy puddles gathering
Grey skies overhead
Shopping centre meandering

Damp shoes squeaky tiles
Soft chatter fills the air
Those umbrellas dripping
A cozy gloom to share

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Santa Luzia

Standard
Tuesday 25th February 

A sunny afternoon
Unfolds its glow
In Santa Luzia
Where soft winds blow

Algarve’s charm
Every step to take
Wandering free
On our sunshine break

Sparkling light dances
On the sea so near
Pretty mosaic walls
Whisper tales to hear

The octopus pots
And tiles of blue
A tranquil world
Comes into view

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Flying

Standard
Monday 24th February 

Just under four hours to Bristol
Departure gate, waiting to board
Hopefully not too crowded
Then new lands to be explored

Flying over the Bay of Biscay
Then onwards to Portugal
Time for a little break
It'll be quite adorable

Oh dearie me, spoke too soon
Flight will be delayed
A technical issue
Nerves are getting frayed

And finally we've arrived
After such a long day
Waiting, delays and queuing
Now heads on pillows, to lay

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum
