The Spirit of Adventure

Saturday 16th July 

The Spirit of Adventure 
A visitor to the bay 
Achoring close to shore
Made the holidaymaker's day 
Many taking photographs 
Before it sailed away 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons

Dwarfing the Island
So close to the shore
Melodies of Ireland cruise
11 nights, starting and ending at Southampton
Sailing around the whole of Ireland

Anchored yachts 
Kayaks paddling 
Stand up boards 
Skilled balancing 

Love you both so much

A pleasure boat off to Seal Island
Busy again on Porthmeor Beach
Lifeguards on duty
Quite a low tide today
Surf School
Harbour corner
The yellow self drive boats
Walking across to Porthminster Beach
Yachts, pleasure boats, self drive, kayaks and stand-up paddleboards

A fragrant potpourri

Thursday 14th July 

Infinite possibilities 
A spirit flying free 
Through a prism of colours 
A fragrant potpourri 

Love you both so much 
Treasured sons

Roses
In our garden
Clustered blooms
A zingy orange
And a zesty lemon
Pink perfection
Yellow frills
Floribunda flourish

I think of you

I think of you 
I always do 
And even though 
You're gone, I know 
Your star shines bright 
I hold you tight 
Within my heart 
Never apart 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons

Yesterday evening
Across the sea
Fiery
Over the rooftops

Another warm one today

Monday 11th July 

Another warm one today 
With yachts anchored in the bay 
Beaches packed, children at play  
In the sea, splashing away 

Love you both so much 
Treasured sons

Looking over the rooftops to the Chapel on the Island
A warm morning
One couple playing on the putting green
Busy again on Porthmeor Beach
Even hotter today
The harbour was quite crowded too
A couple of yachts on outside moorings
A new arrival on the high tide: a bilge keel yacht makes use of a visitor’s mooring buoy
More cloud than yesterday, but many holidaymakers enjoying the wharf
The slipway looks very busy indeed

Just slowly meandering

Sunday 10th July 

Just slowly meandering 
Taking photos, capturing 
Pleasure boats, anchoring 
Paddleboarders, mastering 
Many families gathering 
For cold drinks, clamouring 
As children, jabbering 
Queues for ice-cream, badgering 
And sunscreen, slathering 

Love you both so much 
Beloved sons

No one is using the putting green
Find your space on the beach!
Busy, busy, busy
Tents and windbreaks
High tide, with little beach space remaining
Kitty’s Corner
Harbour slipway

Sailing across the sea

Saturday 9th July 

Sailing across the sea 
No better place to be 
I'm sure you might agree 
Wonderfully carefree 
Crowds watching from the quay 
Winds might be blustery 
Sails free and easy 
Billowing gracefully 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons

Bright and sunny this morning
Many types of watercraft
An ebbing tide
Saturday regatta
Busy today
Much more peaceful
The race is on
A few spectators watching from the new pier
So very clear
Porthmeor Beach
West Porthmeor and Man’s Head
Blue hues

Calm thoughts

Friday 8th July 

Calm thoughts 
Deep breaths 
Slow down 
Worry less 
Shake off 
Guilt and stress 
For a while 
Acquiesce 
Undo that 
Tangled mess 
Difficult 
But decompress 
Adjust your crown 
A fine headdress 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons

Harbour deckchairs lined up on the Wharf
A sunny morning
Busy Porthmeor Beach
Warm and muggy today
Beach vibes
A small swell to enjoy being in the sea
Holiday heaven for some
Paddling in the harbour

Sometimes

Posted on by

Thursday 7th July 

Sometimes 
Past times 
Lifetimes 
Hard times 

New days 
Always 
Amaze 
Star gaze 

Tightrope 
Upslope 
Have hope 
Can cope 

Love you both so much 
Precious sons
