Appointments

Tuesday 15th May

.

To Exeter hospital

Matching underwear day

The clinical drugs trial

Appointments underway

.

Dermatology for skin

Blood and obs with my nurse

Then it’s time for a break

From the medical universe

.

Then upstairs to x-ray

CT scan with contrast

Back and forth through the tunnel

It’s all over at long last

.

And the final stop will be

With my oncologist

Scanxiety sets in

Have to be an optimist

.

Now a long two week wait

For the consultant’s report

Just hoping all will be well

The days don’t turn out too fraught

.

Thinking of you my darling

Wishing you were with me

Wishing things had been different

That you, a survivor would be

.

Food festival

Saturday 12th May

.

Dark clouds gathering in the sky

People trudging across the sand

Food festival on the beach

Fish and chips, with beer in hand

.

Colourful flags fluttering

Music playing from the marquee

Bouncy castles and carousels

With much entertainment to see

.

I’m sure you were wandering too

Tasting and sampling all the food

Tacos, nachos and lemonade

Also sausages barbecued

.

Love you sweetheart

Missing you like crazy

Thinking of you daily

My darling Angel baby

.

The annual Food Festival

On Porthminster Beach

Drawing a good crowd

Dark clouds and silver sea in the harbour

Lambeth Walk waves

Friday 11th May

.

Brokenhearted

Missing piece

Can’t be mended

Pain won’t cease

.

Melancholic

Hard to break free

Big black cloud

Following me

.

Need your smile

Exuberance

Brighten my day

A loving glance

.

Darling Angel

Soars high tonight

Above us mortals

Star shining bright

Me and my Angel, April 2010

Smiling

Thursday 10th May

.

Smiling into the blue

Such a beautiful hue

Whilst thinking of you

Wispy clouds blow through

My heart beats anew

With a love so true

.

Missing you every moment

Loving you always

Dearest Angel son

Sheltered in the harbour

A strong on-shore breeze

Most of the beach was red-flagged ~ probably strong rip currents

Seabird

Wednesday 9th May

.

Watching, waiting

Concentrating

Bright, beady eye

Against grey sky

Equipped to swoop

Your ice cream scoop

Seabird squawking

Forever mocking

Fly through the spray

Soaring away

.

And you

My Darling…..

Fly high

Love you

Miss you

Angel son

Porthmeor Beach with surfers enjoying the waves

Watching, waiting

Steely, grey sea

Falmouth

Posted on by

Monday 7th May

.

Searching for the sunshine

Warmth to lift the spirits

Driving to the South coast

Certainly has its merits

.

Blue skies and colourful flags

A marina filled with yachts

People at pavement cafés

Smiling and laughing lots

.

You liked going to Falmouth

Walking the length of the street

Looking in all the bookshops

A special pocket-money treat

.

As if you were here beside us

Then off you’d go, on your own

So fiercely independent

No need for a chaperone

.

So, were you with us today

My precious, darling boy?

A delightful sunny day

Filled with love and joy

.

Love you

Miss you

Moon and back

Beloved Angel son

All kinds of watercraft

Heading out towards Carrick Roads

Colourful flags fluttering in the sunshine

Port Pendennis marina

Mist

Posted on by

Sunday 6th May

.

Crawling up from the sea

Slow, grey fingers of mist

Now shrouding the beach

All day long, did persist

.

Sneaking through the trees

The nebulous, wispy veil

Excluding the sun’s warmth

Picnic plans must curtail

.

Thinking of you

Precious Angel son

The harbour is down there somewhere

Mist billowing through the trees

Devoid of colour
