Sunday 12th February 

A sunny day is here again 
Bringing hope, chasing out the rain 
The clouds have passed, the sky is clear 
A new beginning, a time to cheer 

I'll take a step and feel the light 
And know that everything'll be right 
I'll hold on tight and never let go 
For hope is the seed that helps us grow 

And as the days get brighter still 
Remember that hope will always fill 
Your heart and soul, and carry you 
Towards a brighter, happier view 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 11th February 

Memories linger 
On and on
Like you're still here 
Even though you've gone

The laughter we shared
The tears we cried
The moments we lived
Always side by side

I miss your smile
Your gentle touch
The way you used to
Love me so much

So I'll hold onto
Those memories tight
And hope that someday
It'll be alright

And consequently 
Miss you every day
Holding on to the love
Shared in every way

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 10th February 

There are things 
That I have buried 
Hidden away deep 
Still, they're carried 
Stored in my mind 
Intensely harried 
Needing the courage 
To stop being worried 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons 
Treasured Mum

Thursday 9th February 

It's okay 
If I don't do it today  

It's all right 
If I can't see the light 

It's fine 
If it isn't mine 

I won't feel bad 
If things make me sad 

Maybe not right now 
Not knowing how 

But one day soon 
A better path will be hewn 

The hope is there 
I know I'll find it somewhere 

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Wednesday 8th February 

Writing down 
So as not to forget 
Nothing left
To overcome or regret

Accepting that 
They'll always be missed 
Meant so much 
Certainly did exist 

Continued grief 
Filled with so much love 
Made our lives 
Special like stars above 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons 
Treasured Mum

Tuesday 7th February 

Such beautiful skies 
Different each day 
A sweeping paintbrush 
An impressive display

Love you so much 
Treasured sons 
Beloved Mum

Monday 6th February 

Sometimes a little fantasy 
Makes reality more bearable 
Wiping away pain and fears 
Being broken can be repairable 

Love you both

Sunday 5th February 

Stretching fingers 
Across the road 
Leafless branches 
As sunshine flowed 
A tangled chaos 
The chill wind blowed
Through gnarly twigs 
A criss-cross code 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum
