Living in the sunshine
Of your beautiful memory
Turning my back on shadows
And a downward trajectory
Love you both so much

It doesn't matter
How long it's been
I know you're there
But no longer seen
Love you both so much

Thursday 5th May
Ring around the sun
Is rain on the way?
A solar halo
But it's warm today
Love you both so much

Wednesday 4th May
Looking back
Is fine with me
I won't get stuck
You're now set free
But I can hold
Your memory
All those pages
A treasury
Love you both so much

Tuesday 3rd May
Starting again
Every morning
Breathing slowly
Face adorning
With gentle smiles
No conforming
To what must be
Little warning
When I lost you
Still, I'm calling
Love you both so much
Forever and always
Treasured sons

Monday 2nd May
Nine years ago today......
Thursday 2nd May 2013
Surgery on dodgy looking mole
On my left foot
On the fourth toe
Melanoma
Stage 3c
.
The mole on my toe
Just started to grow
And I did not know
It would change me so
Melanoma, Ohh!
Spreading to and fro
Lymph nodes, tallyho
Recovery, slow
No more suntan glow
Seek shade, way to go
Fight for tomorrow
Challenge this foe
Love you both so much
Always and forever
Precious sons

Sunday 1st May
Wall to wall sunshine, bodies on the beach
Cooking away nicely, "Sunscreen!" I beseech
Vitamin D is necessary, please don't get me wrong
But frying like a lobster, damage could be life long
So many burnt shoulders, peeling, unsightly skin
D'you know what you've done? What's going on, within?
Melanoma; skin cancer, might not happen today
But a few years down the line, it'll be nothing to downplay
You can't just cut it out, for it's a sneaky beast
Lying dormant, then, like a devil, released
Taking over your life, biopsies, skin grafts
Scans and appointments, normality's in the past
Just always worrying, asking when it will return
Scanxiety, melanoia, a real cause for concern
So slap on some sunscreen, and wear a big hat
Seek shade when it's hot, prevention's where it's at
Melanoma awareness throughout the month of May
But it mustn't stop here, care for your skin everyday.
Love you both so much
My darling sons

Saturday 30th April
Breathe
And slow down
View
Just don't frown
Dwell
Look around
Rest
Fix the crown
Calm
Gentle sound
Life
Plans unbound
Love you both so much
Always and forever
Precious sons

Friday 29th April
Observing surroundings
Watchful and vigilant
Ready to steal ice creams
Unaware participant
He has his eye on you
Seemingly innocent
Swooping silently
Behaviour's insolent
Love you both so much
Precious sons

Thursday 28th April
I'm looking for reasons
To chase away demons
Then balance, we're evens
In those changing seasons
Love you both so much
Forever and always
