Boats in the harbour

Standard
Friday 6th June 

Boats in the harbour
Floating on the sea
Cloudy overhead
The tourists agree
Such a pretty scene
Happy and carefree
Sitting and watching
With a cup of tea
The pavement cafés
Doing splendidly

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum

Finding quiet corners

Standard
Thursday 5th June 

Finding quiet corners
In a chaotic mind
Where those dreams
And whispers intertwine

In moments dark
When spirits wane
Clinging to hope
Despite the strain

Believing thoughts
Like softest rain
Gently drift over
To soothe the pain

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

It’s sunrise here

Standard
Wednesday 4th June

It's sunrise here 
A golden hue
A gentle brush 
Of morning dew
The world awakes
Then shadows flee
With every ray 
A promise free

And sunset there 
A canvas bright
As day gives way
To darkening night
The sky ablaze
In shades of red
Where whispers of
The plans are said

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

With every wish

Standard
Tuesday 3rd June 

With every wish 
A spark ignites
Guiding lost
And distant nights

Through shadows cast
By doubt's own hand
Reaching for places
Yet unplanned

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

The mirror sees

Standard
Monday 2nd June 

The mirror sees
The lines of time
Each wrinkle sings 
Of life’s own rhyme

Yet wisdom weaves
Through silver years
A tapestry
Of joys and tears

An eye test today
A new prescription
Becoming older
Not an affliction

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum

The spark ignites

Standard
Sunday 1st June 

The spark ignites
A heart’s soft plea
A fragile wish
Beneath the tree
It holds the stars
It dares the dawn
A whispered strength
To carry on

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Hoping Thinking

Standard
Saturday 31st May 

Hoping for a gentle light
While thinking guides with steadfast might

Hoping can dream of sunny days
When thinking plans thoughtful ways

Hoping may paint a future bright
So thinking sharpens day and night

Hoping smiles with calming grace
Then thinking sets the measured pace

Hoping breathes a sweet perfume
As thinking clears away the gloom

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

As

Standard
Friday 30th May 

As a river
Runs through the mind
Carving paths
Where shadows unwind
Ideas bloom
Then drift, then fade
Chasing truths
That dreams have made

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

Back home again

Standard
Thursday 29th May 

The door clicks shut 
A welcome sound
Back home again
On familiar ground
The kettle on
A cheerful sign
A peaceful haven
All truly mine

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum
