Your future

Posted on by

Thursday 19th July

.

I lost your future

Our family of four

Reduced to just three

Everything and more

The hopes and dreams

Places to explore

Gone in a moment

The teardrops pour

Brother without brother

Fun and joy before

Sadly now missing

But mem’ries restore

.

Love you forever

Beloved Angel son

Cobbled streets

Wednesday 18th July

.

The cobbled streets of old

Filled with stories to be told

Many tireless footsteps trod

With many shoes to be shod

Down the lane, or up the hill

Hanging baskets, standing still

Quiet moment of reflection

Sunny view of perfection

You’d go walking here and there

Lost in a world, without care

Happy days and innocence

But life has lost its permanence

.

Missing my boy

Darling Angel son

Goodbye

Tuesday 17th July

Said goodbye to younger son

Flying back to Portugal and Spain

One week has passed so quickly

But so lovely to see him again

.

He came along to see you

Standing quietly, reminiscing

Did you know that he was there?

Looking back and wishing

.

We really do miss you so much

My dearest, darling Angel son

Sleep tight, fly high, shine bright

At peace, now forever young

.

Waiting at Newquay Airport to board

Saying goodbye

On the plane to Faro, a last wave

Creating memories without you

Posted on by

Sunday 15th July

.

Creating memories without you

But bringing you along, all the same

I know you’re not physically here

But it does help to soften the pain

.

So I’m talking to, and about you

Letting you know what’s going on

I just have to keep remembering

Because I really don’t want you gone

.

Left with a lifetime of speculation

Wondering how you’d develop

Who you’d be, and what you’d do

With so much love enveloped

.

And yet, I can only imagine

Just who you would have been

So you’ll exist in my heart forever

The perfect angel, at peace, serene

.

My sweetheart

Only a thought away

Saturday 14th July

.

Only a thought away

Just a whisper

A memory

Sounds

.

And there you are

Back to life

Right here

Alive

.

My beloved Angel son

Within my heart

So special

Believe

.

It makes me smile

Thoughts of you

Precious gift

Angel

Dinner

Friday 13th July

.

I do wish you were here

And I could see your face

Hear your voice and laughter

Hold you in a tight embrace

.

You’d come out for dinner

With brother, aunt and niece

So much giggling together

The fun would never cease

.

Missing you so much

Darling Angel son

Nan and your brother xxx

Triple chocolate martini

Coco coco cocktail

The harbour, just before sunset

The view walking home after dinner

Late last night

Wednesday 11th July

.

It was late last night

At twenty past ten

Knocking on the door

Just look who’s here, then

.

Your brother, from Spain

Flown in to Newquay

A great big surprise

We’d have to agree

.

A weekend wedding

Of an old school mate

A week spent with us

Is going to be great

.

I think you’d be cross

Turning up like that

Not letting us know

No message or chat

.

You’d grumble and groan

Although secretly

You’d be having fun

Enjoy his company

.

Just wish you were here

Brothers together

Making memories

Happy forever

.

Love you sweetie

Precious Angel son

Darkening clouds, but still muggy warm
