Fly high sweet son
My Angel, my love
Sending our kisses
To you up above.

Tuesday 28th February
Wish you were here, my darling
Missing you so much today
Can’t seem to shake off the sadness
But the memories won’t fade away
Still can’t believe this has happened
Our lives are in disarray
Standing beside you daily
“We love you so much” we say.
Forever in our hearts
Beloved Angel son

Sunday 26th February
I try so hard to hide my sorrow
(You’re not supposed to cry)
Instead I speak of you everyday
And the memories intensify.
Remembering all your qualities
That made you so individual
Such a quirky personality
An enigma, a true original.
When you were born, the doctors said
“They broke the mould upon your birth”
You grew up into someone special
We loved you beyond all our worth.
And so it was, when you breathed your last
A massive veil of heartache descended
Obliterating our future plans
With broken lives that can’t be mended.
And so we try to pick up the pieces
A rollercoaster of love and grief
Some days are better than others
We just have to have a strong belief.
Truly grateful for those thirty years
To watch you develop and grow
Our dearest, darling Angel son
Love you more than you’ll ever know.

Friday 24th February
Two o’clock this morning
I was suddenly awoken
Thought I heard voices
The sentences, broken.
Thought it was the neighbours
Talking in the street
Wish they could be quiet
And beat a hasty retreat.
Struggling out of bed
Drowsy, not quite with it
Lights and sounds downstairs
Television was on transmit.
I found Adele singing
Setting fire to the rain
I had a little chuckle
And turned it off again.
I know I’d switched it off
Before I went to bed
So who was the cheeky monkey
Who turned it back on instead?
Was that you my darling?
Playing a trick on us
Turning on the television
Causing a bit of fuss.
No other explanation
Just you making your mark
Getting me up at night
To go stumbling in the dark.
Sweetheart Angel
Fly high Starman
Love you forever

Thursday 23rd February
You’re my Angel in the wind
Whispering through the trees
Dancing across the wave crests
And flying high in the breeze
Up there in the passing clouds
Rustling with the fallen leaves
All around and round about
Way above the stormy seas.
Love you forever
To the moon and back
Beloved Angel son

Wednesday 22nd February
Gone for now
But not forever
Always missed
Forgotten, never.
Love you poppet
My Angel son
Beyond the clouds
Precious loved one.
Safe in my heart
Walking together
That’s where you’ll stay
Forever and ever.
Love you sweetheart
Blowing kisses to you

Tuesday 21st February
“Wish you were here”
I know that’s true
It’s a bit of a cliché
But it’s what I say to you.
“I miss you so much”
That’s also true
My heart is broken
There is no glue.
“I love you forever”
That’s the way it’ll stay
You’re my precious son
Though you’ve flown away.
Fly high sweetheart
My Angel Starman.

Monday 20th February
My darling, sweet Angel
I know you’re there
Walking beside me
You’re everywhere.
Love you my poppet
And I always will
My broken heart
Holds you safe and still.
