Shiny, cobbled streets of old

Thursday 4th June

Shiny, cobbled streets of old

Well trodden down the years

I know you walked along this way

As a sweet memory appears

Round and round the town you trod

In and out of book stores

Head down, minding your own

You really liked to be outdoors

.

And I miss you so

Dearest Angel son

The Digey, St Ives

Porthmeor Beach

Cold and breezy

Hardly anyone on the sand

Self drive boats have appeared in the harbour, ready for day trippers

Still very quiet

Fingerprints

Standard

Wednesday 3rd June

.

Fingerprints on my heart

Handprints on my mind

Footprints on my soul

How your life is signed

Everywhere and anywhere

Wherever you may be

A part of me is with you

And a part of you with me

.

Always and forever

Sweet Angel son

The twin masted 181 foot, super yacht Adela, anchored in Falmouth. (In the background is The World, the largest, privately owned residential yacht).

Looking towards Falmouth town

A selection of water craft under leaden skies

Back at Porthmeor Beach, waves whipped up by a northerly wind

Seagulls on the foreshore

A warm, sunshine afternoon

A warm, sunshine afternoon

A few more people around

Family groups on the beaches

Bodies becoming browned

.

Sunscreen and barbecues

Delightful smells of summer

Twiddling toes in the sand

Children’s squeals of wonder

.

And there you stride, silently

In your own unique world

Clutching your favourite book

Pages well thumbed and curled

.

I really wish it was you

That young lad so far away

Brown hair and striped t-shirt

Thought you’d come back to stay

.

Missing you

Beloved Angel son

High tide in the harbour this morning

The Parish Church

West End, Porthmeor Beach

Local groups on the sand

Many more at the edge of the waves

Lock down birthday

A different one

Quiet celebration

When all’s said and done

Walk around the town

Sitting in the sun

A Thai takeaway

Pad kee mao, yum yum

Thinking of you my sweetie

Darling Angel son

No mist or fog today

Perfectly blue

A gorgeous afternoon

Socially distanced beach goers

Low tide in the harbour

Looking towards the lifeboat house and the parish church

Sitting on the slipway

Red valerian grows everywhere

The mist creeps in

Wednesday 27th May

.

The mist creeps in

Then crawls back out

Obscuring the land

Eerily grey about

The sun’s warmth is there

Trying to burn through

Turning the sky

A cerulean blue

.

Thinking of you

And missing you always

Love you sweetheart

Beloved Angel son

Mist rolls in over Man’s Head

The sea is there somewhere

A few groups on the sand

Misty harbour

But there is blue sky up above

Slowly, slowly the mist is dissipating

In the warm sunshine

Standard

Monday 25th May

.

In the warm sunshine

Searching the sky

Looking to the heavens

To see where you fly

So lost without you

But separation

Only temporary

Sweet celebration

Together we’ll be

Dancing without care

No anxieties

Warm wind in our hair

.

Love you poppet

Beloved Angel son

Bank Holiday Monday

A few groups of people on the beach, but not as crowded as it would be in normal times

Warm sunshine

Quiet in the harbour

Tractor trails in the sand from the lifeboat being hauled in
