Tuesday 13th June
Fly high sweet Angel
Open your wings
Travel the world
On your journeyings
Above the clouds
You swoop and soar
Finding peace at last
With pain no more
Missing you my darling
Beloved Angel son

Flying free above the harbour
Monday 12th June
My book of memories will never close
How much I miss you no-one knows
I hide my thoughts beneath a mask
Thinking of answers to questions you ask
“There’s nothing wrong, of course I’m fine”
As I walk along, enjoying the sunshine
It’s only when, behind closed doors
“I want you back”, my heart implores
My sweetest Angel
Darling son

Colourful harbour this afternoon
Sunday 11th June
You are. You were. You will be
In my heart. Always with me.
Love you my Angel
Beloved son

Low tide at Porthmeor Beach
Low tide in the harbour
Saturday 10th June
I’m just missing
Everything about you
Smiles and laughter
Our happy ever after
Arguments and tears
A precious thirty years
Joyful voices, stories to tell
You should be here, alive and well
Above the clouds, fly high
My darling Angel in the sky

Friday 9th June
It’s raining over my soul
Grey clouds surround my heart
I’m trying to look for rainbows
To stop me falling apart
I’m searching for a sign from you
My dearest, darling sweetheart
A little feather blows my way
I know we’re not really far apart
Fly high
Beloved Angel son

Thursday 8th June
Watching the birdie
Wings open in flight
Hovering close by
Beneath the sunlight
Curious seagull
Large appetite
For tourists’ ice creams
A pre-emptive strike
Go fly out to sea
Catch fish like before
Instead of stealing
From humans ashore
You’d never walk along
Eating food outdoors
Quite rightly thinking
What’s mine isn’t yours
Love you sweetheart
Treasured Angel son

Watching the birdie
Big clouds and sunshine
Sunshine between the showers
Surfers enjoying the waves
Wednesday 7th June
My love for you will never cease
Even though my heart is broken
You’ll always be the missing piece
Keeps us together, grief unspoken
Love you forever
Dearest Angel son

A grey harbour at low tide
Tuesday 6th June
The wind has blown the rain away
Thoughts of you are carried in the breeze
But my love for you won’t be scattered
As those fragile leaves shaken from trees
I’ll hold on tight
Like the man with the kite
And breathing slowly, my pain to ease.
Beloved Angel son
Flying high

The beach, red-flagged today, but good for kite flying
An empty beach, with rough seas
Lots of white horses
Much calmer in the harbour
Monday 5th June
Drops of rain
Hide the tears
Not the pain
Lasts for years
Cold sea breeze
Blowing strong
Ill at ease
All day long
Feeling down
Don’t know why
Forehead frown
Great big sigh
So, tomorrow
Brand new day
That I know
I’ll be okay
Angel son
In my heart
Thirty years young
Never apart
xxxxxx
Cold, wet and windy. Sheltering beneath the trees
Sunday 4th June
Missing you so very much
On this beautiful sunny day
Remembering your smile
When we planned our holiday
Full of enthusiasm
For fun on our getaway
But since you flew to heaven
Many thoughts are tinged with grey
But the flowers in our garden
Leave a colourful bouquet
And smiling as I think of you
‘Cos that’s where you loved to play
Missing you my sweet Angel
And so that’s all I have to say

Sitting in the back garden, aged five
Snap-dragons in our garden today
Colourful, tall antirrhinums
Dancing fuchsia
Another pretty beach day
