Tuesday 16th April 

Sunshine shimmering 
In golden hue 
Heat bearing down 
The sky's clear blue 
Hot breeze ruffling 
The water's flow 
Dusty cobbles 
Where shadows grow 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Monday 15th April 

A change of location 
On to Tavira 
A wide flowing river 
In a pretty area 
Beneath blue skies 
We stroll along 
In the warmth of the sun 
Where we belong 

Love you so much
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 14th April 

Sunshine on hot pavements 
A shimmering heat 
Slow meanderings 
Along dusty concrete 

A walk to the marina 
Where boat mast's sway 
Lunch overlooking the water 
Quite a perfect day 

Motor boats and yachts 
Each vying for a space 
Time spent people watching 
In this picturesque place 

Blue skies above 
With clouds so few 
Shady spot to stop 
And take in the view 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 13th April 

Blue skies stretch 
Far and wide 
Palm trees sway 
With the tide 
Endless beaches 
Where sea meet sand 
Breaking waves 
Nature's grand 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 12th April 

A stroll along the waterfront 
Warm sunshine on my face 
Bars and restaurants, tempting 
Rest a while, enjoy this place 

Watching the world go by 
Amidst the laughter and chatter  
Breathing in a tranquil moment 
Dispel worries that don't matter 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 11th April 

Escaping the storms and rain
Flying to Portugal again
Taking our seats on the plane
Soaring over rugged terrain
Escaping from the mundane
With so much to entertain
A glass of wine to obtain
Maybe a flute of champagne 

Love you so much
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Wednesday 10th April 

It's raining again 
A steady downpour 
Dull and dank 
We do deplore 
Supposed to be spring 
With blossoms bright 
The ground's waterlogged 
It's just not right! 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 9th April 

Not hanging on to loss  
And grief 
But holding on to love 
My belief 

Through all the adventures 
Love finds its way 
In each and every moment 
Come what may 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons 
Treasured Mum

Monday 8th April 
 
Spending time with you 
In memories past 
Those happy days 
That wouldn't last 
Echoes of laughter 
Fun and delight 
Moments cherished 
Won't reunite 

Love you so much
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 7th April 

Though you're gone 
Your spirit remains 
In echoes of laughter 
And joy's refrains 
In memories cherished 
Forever we'll hold 
The love we shared 
In stories untold 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum
