Saturday 17th December
A warm breeze
Through the trees
Day to seize
Pain to ease.
Bright sunshine
Still shoreline
Angel mine
Love divine.
Sparkling sea
Flying free
Wish you’d be
Here with me.

Thursday 15th December
Such a pretty drive along the Overseas Highway, fifty miles south to Key West. On the left hand side of the road is the Atlantic ocean, and on the right, the Gulf of Mexico.
We have been here on a number of occasions, each time with you, my darling. So today we tried to explore a little more, rather than simply retracing our usual steps. We didn’t eat in our normal spot, (where you really enjoyed the chocolate dipped strawberries, drizzled with chantilly cream), but did have a cold drink on Sunset Pier, where we have sat together, many, many times.
The palm trees were wrapped with fairy lights, street lamps beribboned to look like candy canes, and various decorated Christmas trees were dotted about.
Missing you sweetheart
Thinking of you so much
Blowing kisses to heaven
Love you forever

Wednesday 14th December
Sombrero Beach this morning
The first time here without you
So many memories come to mind
Time to reflect, take in the view.
You would walk along the hot sand
Dipping your toes into the sea
Reading a book, with headphones on
Until bored, then you’d run back to me.
We miss you so much my Angel
It’s really not the same at all
Visiting places we went to with you
Sights and sounds are there to recall.
Darling son
Love you
Missing you

Monday 12th December
And time to relax……
Here we are, in Marathon, for the next week or so. Time to recharge, reflect, and do absolutely nothing.
We haven’t been here since 2013, when you were with us: there are so many wonderful memories.
You had two Christmas visits, and probably six or seven summer holiday vacations to the Keys. A fabulous location for peace and quiet, and the best sunsets.
Thinking of you, as always, sweetheart.
Love you forever, my Angel.

Sunday 11th December
Here we are my darling
Safely in Miami
Lots of time to relax
I’m sure you would agree.
A long ten hour flight
Taking us over the ocean
Thinking of you all the way
Heart’s filled with emotion.
Love you my Angel
Our first American holiday
Since you went to heaven
It will be so different

Saturday 10th December
We came by early this morning
To pick you up and whisk you away
On a long drive up to London
To begin our festive holiday.
The first time since you went to heaven
We’re taking you with us in our hearts
It will be different, a little sad
Tomorrow morning the plane departs.
I’m sure you’ll have a wonderful time
Swimming in the warm ocean so blue
Love you forever, my darling son
Over the ocean to beaches new.
