We miss your
flapjacks – ours never taste the same,
We miss your tear-filled giggles,
When something amused you – usually slightly risqué!
I berate myself every weekend
For leaving it too late to call you,
Then remember I can’t
We miss your kindness for everyone you met
We miss
your chats to dogs and cats we met on walks
I still say
‘Good Morning Mr Magpie – how’s your wife and family’
Just as
you would do
We miss your
elaborate lowdowns
Of TV quizzes that we might have missed
We miss the help and
support you always gave us
When times
were tough
I miss the
way I could never leave from a visit
Without ‘petrol money’ in my pocket
We miss the fact
that we will never again receive
A
personalised, hand-made birthday card
But most of all,
from the bottom of our hearts
We miss YOU ♥♥♥
Happy Birthday Mum/Nanna
