Linda Batchelder Poems

Loving you is watching
The sun dance on water
Like endless acres of diamonds
On a golden summer morning.
...

Two comrades huddled
On the frigid ground.
Mangy, tattered blanket pulled up
Around grey, matted beards.
...

Shuffling forward slowly
On cardboard fitted soles;
Rancid bits of leather
Held in place by weathered twine.
...

Eighty-five.
Her walk is different.
Sensing uneven ground,
Carefully placed steps
...

Upon first meeting
I was wholly smitten
By the wit and wisdom of this man.
Soft grey suit and finest silken tie;
...

The blackest veil of illness
Shrouds you as the night.
No light to penetrate the dark,
No laughter hides within.
...

Skillfully rendered chords
Melodious and strong,
Chime forth at any given hour.
Bringing infinite serenity and peace
...

Insane visions
Stab the night.
Laughing demons
Mock his plight.
...

The Best Poem Of Linda Batchelder

Loving You

Loving you is watching
The sun dance on water
Like endless acres of diamonds
On a golden summer morning.

Loving you is walking
Through a candlelit cathedral
In silent prayer.

Loving you is the feel
Of a gentle breeze, and
The cool green grass
Beneath my feet.

Loving you is being surrounded
By the quiet beauty
Of great works of art.

Loving you is the sound
Of a waterfall,
Or the sight of a rainbow.

Loving you is running through
Bright hillsides of autumn, and
Breathing in their earthy scents.

Loving you is the joy
In the eyes of a child
On their birthday.

Loving you is standing
In the middle of a sun shower,
Arms outstretched.

Loving you is awakening
To the first snow of winter,
And the crisp clean air
Of early dawn.

Loving you is the returning
Of birds
And the first buds of spring.

Loving you
Is the memory
Of home.
