Graduation

You have worked hard to define your future
Overcome challenges to accomplish your goal
You have risen above the mountain
To reach the designated plateau
Success is defined ~ deep within you
Where moral values nurture and grow
We are so proud of your accomplishments
Your achievements, so deservedly bestowed

I would've sent you flowers

I would have sent you flowers today mum
I would have made you a card with a rhyme
I would have called and sang to you
Wrapped a gift - drank some wine
Birthdays were always so special
You always made sure we felt the love
So as I look back and smile - as I remember
I blow a kiss to you in heaven - up above
Love and miss you Mum xx

Today, I send you my thoughts and prayers
As we remember Mum on her birthday today
Because sometimes it’s sad to remember
To look back on yesterday
May every teardrop create a happy memory
To fill your heart with a smile and love
May the warmth of her spirit fill you
As you blow a kiss to the heavens above

Fathers day - son

I smile inside a silent pride
As I watch you with your baby
Your strong hands now so gentle
Your muscular arms ~ wrapped tenderly
Expressions of a fathers love
Fill my heart to overflow
Watching my son in awe and wonder
Beautifully vulnerable ~ exposed

I raise a glass - Fathers day

I raise my glass in honor of you
To toast you this Father’s Day
To let you know you are thought of
 In a special kind of way
Even though distance between us
Spreads over miles faraway
You are here in my thoughts ~ always
I love you ~ Happy Father’s Day
