Friday 18th October

Not always visible

Grief is long term

Empty space in my heart

Our love holds firm

.

Forever missed

Always loved

Never forgotten

Thursday 17th October

.

Thankful

For those treasured opportunities

So happy

For all the tremendous activities

Grateful

For all the wonderful possibilities

So blessed

With the marvellous festivities

.

Priceless memories

Mean so much

Never forgotten

But I miss your touch

.

Darling Angel son

Porthmeor Beach in between the showers

A cooler afternoon

The lifeguards are still patrolling the beach

Walkers and surfers

A very faint rainbow over the pier

Dark grey clouds on the horizon

Wednesday 16th October

.

Love doesn’t fade

Though I wish you’d stayed

I know you’re not afraid

On fluffy clouds you’re laid

With angels to serenade

.

Beloved Angel son

A grey squirrel searching for acorns and pine cones

Tuesday 15th October

Holding on

To those memories

A treasure trove

Of wonderful stories

.

Missing you like crazy

My darling Angel baby

Monday 14th October

.

A seagull stole an ice cream

His mates came swooping down

Poor unsuspecting consumer

Forehead knotted with a frown

When will the tourists learn

To cover their food in our town?

The sky-rats are quite clever

These thieves are so reknown

.

Thinking of you my darling

You loved your ice cream treats

But never would you eat them

Wandering around the streets

.

Man’s Head and the Reef

Dark skies over the Island

An empty Porthmeor Beach

I’m watching you…

I’m coming for your ice cream

Who has the cone?

Heavy skies filled with rain

A partial rainbow brightens the afternoon

Sunday 13th October

.

My Autumn Angel

Leaves turning to gold

A cooler wind blows

Hand in mine to hold

Acorns start falling

Squirrels scoot about

Evenings drawing in

Thoughts of you play out

Missing you always

That’ll never change

Love you forever

And that will not change

.

Little snippets of your life

Pop into my head everyday

Remembering all the fun times

You’re not really very far away

.

Love you sweetie

An old Cornish engine house, used for tin mining. Robinson’s Shaft

Inside the Red River Cafe this morning

Out for dinner…. Sister had squid

I had oysters

Gary had scallops, with macaroni cheese, bacon jam and truffle sauce

A long, low, threatening cloud seen from the restaurant looking over the harbour

My main course; steamed plaice with crab, prawn, asparagus and hollandaise sauce

The other two had sirloin steak, bearnaise sauce, wild mushrooms, truffle hash browns and watercress

Beach coladas 😘

Friday 11th October

The lasting love I feel

For the son I no longer see

Will last forever and a day

His heart is beating within me

Grey skies over Porthmeor Beach

A few surfers are in the sea

Lifeguards still patrolling the beach

Thursday 10th October

.

A day out in the drizzle and rain

Coffee and cake at Travaskis Farm

Some picked pumpkins or plums

We preferred to stay in the warm

.

Such a selection of yummy desserts

Chocolate and nut pavlova for me

Chocolate and cherry roulade for Gary

So what if we were a little bit piggy!

.

Once in a while have what you want

A little of what you fancy

Can’t do any harm at all

Just leaving us full and happy

.

You’d have liked these super desserts

My precious little Angel son

Your favourite a knickerbocker glory

Or a chocolate brownie, my loved one

.

Thinking of you

Missing you

Loving you

xxxxx

Gary’s chocolate and cherry roulade

My chocolate and hazelnut pavlova

Such a tempting display

So many calories

But so fabulous

Yummy scrummy desserts

Wednesday 9th October

.

Sunshine and heavy showers today

Towering clouds chasing across the sky

The rain coming down in stair rods

Puddles growing as cars splash by

.

Blowing kisses to you

My Angel up on high

Sending lots of love

As above us you fly

.

Blowing a gale on Porthmeor Beach

The rain is not far away

Billowy clouds over the harbour

Taking the rain away

All is calm for the moment

About twenty minutes after this, the sky turned so dark, and rain and hail battered the seafront
