A sunny day

Standard
Tuesday 19th December 

A sunny day
Canvas of smiles bright
Lazy wanderings
In the warm sunlight
Chilled glass of rosé
A sip so divine
More meanderings
Where moments entwine

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Crisp, hot, fries and dips
Festive flowers
Walking back to the seafront

Sunny Spain

Standard
Monday 18th December 

Sunny Spain
Beside the sea glimmering
Beautiful blue skies
Far off horizon shimmering
Warmth on the skin
Like a gentle kiss
Smiles all around
Pure holiday bliss

Worries, like whispers
Begin to fade
As holiday vibes
In the air pervade
Beach bar stops
Laughter in the air
A measure of joy
Beyond compare

Walking along
The seafront's line
Where waves and dreams
Do intertwine
Under the sun's
Warm golden rays
A melody of peace
That'll last for days

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

Across to the shopping centre for coffee
A walk along the beach

A stop for a drink
The Tiki Bar
A lovely afternoon
Narrow streets of Fuengirola

Time to go

Standard
Sunday 17th December 

And it's time to go
All sorted and done
Later this evening
Off to winter sun
We're leaving behind
The gloom and the grey
Time for cocktails
Family holiday

Love you so much

See you later, St Ives

Nearly ready

Standard
Saturday 16th December 

Nearly ready to leave
On wings of delight
Exchanging grey skies
For sunny light
It'll be time to relax
And also to rest
Where the warmth of a new
Horizon's blessed

Do worries melt away
In the sun's embrace?
Perhaps they do
In that tranquil space
Hidden in the background
A subtle thread
Yet in the sunshine
Lighter they tread

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Grey, mizzle, mist and drizzle

Perspective

Standard
Friday 15th December 

Follow the perspective
The lines defined
Reaching the vanishing point
A perfect find
Every inhale, every exhale
Just being free
Breathe in the vastness
Of your own journey

Love you so much

Forthcoming days

Standard
Thursday 14th December 

Forthcoming days
A canvas yet bare
Planning a journey
With dreams to share
Packing hopes
In the suitcase's space
A few more days
A countdown's race

Excitement sparkles
A glimmering tide
Warmer weather beckons
On the other side
Family together
We'll be on our way
Flying quite soon
To a sun-kissed day

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

A grey morning
Fading light in the harbour
Cold Porthmeor Beach

Hope ends the day

Standard
Wednesday 13th December 

As big and exciting
As all those dreams
Or small and quiet
Where solace streams
On overpowering days
Where shadows weigh
Seeking the horizon
When hope ends the day

Love you so much

Bright and chilly

Life unfolds

Standard
Tuesday 12th December 

Life unfolds
Through a unique lens
A blend of views
The soul's defense
Landscapes painted
In hues unknown
Breathe, and let
Calmness be shown

The perception
A kaleidoscope of hues
A fusion of perspectives
Anyones to choose
In the vast expanse
Or on days so grey
Taking it in
Navigating each day

Love you so much
Beloved sons

Hesitant steps

Standard
Monday 11th December 

Hesitant steps
On a path unknown
Maybe's dance
In a quiet zone
Possibilities linger
A delicate thread
In the realm
Where futures tread

Love you so much
Treasured sons

A little drizzly this morning

Reflective pause

Standard
Sunday 10th December 

In that reflective pause
A breath's last embrace
Say the words
That time cannot erase
"I love you" a melody
Tender and true
Echoing throughout
The eternity following you

"I will miss you"
A whispered vow
In the silence
Blanketing here and now
You matter, I'll declare it
And let it soar
A tribute to the soul
That breathes no more

"I will never stop
Telling your story"
The tapestry of memories
So adulatory
Thank you for loving me
A gratitude profound
In the final whispers
Love's legacy is found

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum
