I’ll do

Standard
Thursday 16th June 

I'll do
What works for me
I'll try
Through dark, to see
I'll find
Calm, be carefree
I'll smile
And just agree
I'll walk
Down to the sea
I'll sit
Beneath palm tree
I'll breathe
Happy to be
I'll answer
To nobody

Love you both so much
Treasured sons

St Ives, early evening

Bright sunlight

Standard
Wednesday 15th June 

Bright sunlight bouncing off the sea
Waves climbing up the golden sand
Children's delightful cries of fun
Grasping tightly to the parent's hand
Summertime filled with laughter
Ice cream cornet, and life is grand

Love you both so much
Forever and always
Treasured sons

Porthmeor West
Warm and bright
Low tide in the harbour
A pretty afternoon
Many enjoying the beach
The tide begins to creep in
A few are caught out on the sandbank!

A new beginning

Standard
Tuesday 14th June 

A new day
A new beginning
Feels like
I could be winning
Though this world
Is set on spinning
Out of control
Sets alarms ringing
Stop for awhile
Troubles dimming
Uplift to the sky
With heart a-brimming

Love you both so much
Precious sons

Slap bang in the middle

Standard
Monday 13th June 

Slap bang in the middle
Of happy, happiness
A big, long sigh exhales
With thoughts of tenderness
Of long ago exploits
With fun and cheerfulness
Times no longer with us
Intruding loneliness
Memories made, so special
Family togetherness

Love you both so much
My darling sons

Porthmeor Beach this afternoon
Looking towards the Island
High tide in the harbour
The clouds slowly clearing
Harbour slipway
All types of watercraft
The New Pier

Slow down, and breathe

Standard
Sunday 12th June 

Slow down, and breathe
Notice surroundings
I tell myself this
On all of our outings
Taking time to renew
All those special things
Restore and replenish
See what calmness brings

Love you both so much
Forever and always
Beloved sons

Those new roses

Standard
Thursday 9th June 

Those new roses
Make me smile
And I think of you
For a little while
Just standing there
Quite immobile
Beneath the tree
Colours most tactile

Love you both so much
Beloved sons

Taking many photos

Standard
Wednesday 8th June 

Taking many photos
Collected down the years
Held safely in the cloud
All darkness melts and clears
Like a return ticket
So nothing disappears
It's the memory train
Packed full of cheers and tears

Love you both so much
Forever and always
Treasured sons

Bright and sunny in the harbour
The tide is going out
Bunkers Hill, on the way to Porthmeor Beach
The Island
Man’s Head
Very windy on Porthmeor Beach
Swimmers braving the cold
Quite choppy here

Sometimes

Standard
Tuesday 7th June 

Sometimes
I need to retreat
Far away
With peace, to greet
Silence
Calmness complete
Where noise
Takes a back seat
Knowing that
Life can be sweet

Love you both so much
Precious sons

A bright morning
Followed by drizzle this afternoon
