Day 16 – A Poem From My Diary Called “Roanie”
Letting Go: 31 Days of Love and Reflection
This month marks the 20th anniversary since I lost my firstborn, Alan. To honour his memory, every day this month I’m sharing snippets from my book Letting Go – a mother’s healing journey through diaries, poetry & song.
‘Roanie’. A cat & her kittens come into our lives when we are at our loneliest ♥️😇

Welcome to this month’s oracle reading. The card that came through is Angel of Soul Love — a powerful invitation into self-love, compassion, and stillness.
This month’s card invites us to soften, surrender, and remember our own childlike innocence — that part of us that simply is, without needing to figure it all out.
