                                          My darling boy

                 I miss your smile
                                        
                                                              I miss your hugs
       
                       I miss your love
                                                  
                                                                         I miss your voice
             
                    						 your daily calls
                                   
                   I miss your very essence
                                                
  
                                           Son 
                               
                                                  I really miss you so 


                                                           why did you have to go?


                    my teardrops now begin to flow

Shirley Hawkins October 14, 2020 at 12:22 AM How beautifully expressed. It brought tears to my eyes as my son died 20 months ago, i have his photo on the computer and I talk to him every day and take flowers to the cemetery every Sat trusting he knows that he is never far from our thoughts and will always be loved. Your loving verse showed how much your son is missed and loved ( I wish I had penned that Ann ) What a privilege it is to share such love with each other that will last eternally. A touching verse from a lovely Mum.... Ann Gilmour October 14, 2020 at 12:33 AM Shirley I am so sorry that you have also lost your dear son, my heart goes out to you. I also talk to my son everyday and pray that he is now with his Dad and Nan, who both loved him dearly. I find that putting my pain into a poem is so cathartic and somehow gets me through each day. My son loved my poetry, bless him. Thank you so much for your beautiful comforting words my friend. You are in my thoughts. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

Victor Buhagiar October 12, 2020 at 3:49 AM How can you not miss your dear son. But always think of him as the one who cares for you. My prayers always with you. ~~ Ann Gilmour October 13, 2020 at 4:15 AM Bless you dear Victor and thank you my friend. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

With kindest thoughts Ann xx

Sam Kauffman October 11, 2020 at 2:01 PM I know this is painful time for your my friend. Know you remain in my prayers. Your grief cascades through your format - a visual picture of your tears in words and symbols. Well done. Sending you thoughts of comfort and peace. Ann Gilmour October 11, 2020 at 2:23 PM Bless you my friend as the day approaches I find I need to put down in words my feelings and thoughts to try to ease the pain. Today has not been a good day really. I hope you are well dear Sam and your family too. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
