MUM – Happy 17th Birthday Darling – 18th October 2007
With love …… Mum xx
It’s your Birthday today
What can I say
You would be 17
A young man
So Handsome
My beautifull son
A car, driving lessons, new clothes and money in your pocket would have been the order of the day
Instead – roses
One – I took to Angel Bay – it was wonderfull there today – I was alone in your favourite place
Two – one each – Dad and I will go together to Capel Curig tomorrow -
We’ll leave a nice basket in the tree
Again we will watch the rippling flowing river for a while and dream our dreams of you
The wind will blow and tears may flow
We’ll drive home – again – without you
Empty, and sad
As today moves on
The dark cloud slowly passes for a while
I thought of your 1st birthday
I watched the lovely video – again …….
My water baby – in the bath – having the ‘time of his life’
I remember your other birthdays and feel so proud and glad I spent them with you
Memories are all I have
Dreams make me feel better for a while …..
I think of your smile and feel comfort
So, although we may all have moments of sadness today
I’m sure you know in your heart – you are wished – a ‘perfect day’
Maybe – just for a moment – we will re-unite in our minds – and be together – as one
I love you – and miss you
I know there will be many thoughts of you tonight
So, goodbye, god bless, live in the sky xxxx
MUM xxxxxxxxxx
