Linda Harnett Poems

Oh, to be lying,
On a beach,
Somewhere,
With sand in my toes,
...

I am woman,
Proud and free,
More to me,
Than what you see,
...

Hush now child,
No need to say goodbye,
No winter song,
No gentle lullaby,
...

Oh, how I missed you, Lonely Beach,
Where I have left my soul,
The rugged rocks surround me,
I sit there, lost, alone.
...

I’m sitting by a windmill,
In a hurricane it seems,
I feel that I’ve been here before,
Or was it in my dreams.
...

They say that when the body sleeps,
The spirit needs to roam,
It rises up to leave this plane,
To find a place called home.
...

And Still I Wait


And still I wait,
...

For you I’d climb a mountain,
I’d grab the furthest star,
I’d walk from here to Timbuktu,
No distance is too far.
...

I’m going now,
Just moving on,
Perhaps you’ll miss me,
When I’m gone,
...

Today I lit a candle,
In memory of you,
A very special tribute,
A flame of gold and blue.
...
