Linda L. Franklin Poems

Our eyes met across the room
You smile and my heart melts
My mind rushes - who is this person
And where did they come from?
...

Though the years I have caught glimpses of you
At times I thought I had met you
You invade my dreams, my waking thoughts
My soul cries out for you
...

You stole my heart
Like a thief on the Nile
Our love, it has no boundaries
As it crosses borders and miles
...

Where does love go?
Once you tell someone you love them.
Once you’ve told them
That they were your one and only
...

You came into this world
With high expectations
But sometime during your life
It was lost
...

My life just didn’t start when I was born
It is interwoven with those who have come before.
Many people make up who I am
Some I have met, but for a few short years
...

Just me and the pots and the pans
In my own little world
With my hands in the water,
My mind goes around the world.
...

I was born into this world
As no-one of importance except to a few
I grew and grew
Through living life's experience's
...

</>As I walk in this life
Taking the journey through time
You’re there
...

Baby when I look at you
I am in Awe.
You take my breathe away,
With the love I see in your face.
...
