PRODIGAL LOVER

By Charles Robert Lindholm

She Sailed
Into The Sunset
Never Looking Back
Or Waving

Without A Care
Or Second Thought
She Left Me
For Anywhere But Here

HE SEDUCED ME

By Charles Robert Lindholm

He Seduced Me
With Lies
Sweeter Than Honey

He Whispered
In My Ear
But Knew
The Way
To My Heart

I COULD SLEEP IN A SMALLER BED

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Could Sleep In A Smaller Bed
There Is No Physical Need
For Me To Have All The Room
Provided By A King Size Bed

UNWANTED THOUGHTS AND MEMORIES

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Sit Alone
In The Silence
Of Another
Day Ending
In The Midst
Of A Darkening
Room

Shadows
Creeping
Onto The Walls
Chasing
The Light Away

Contemplation

Quiet contemplation
A mind that never stops
Thoughts of how life changes
Memories.

LOVE NOTES

By Charles Robert Lindholm

There Are Many
That Will Walk With You
As You Travel Your
Chosen Path In Life
Some For Awhile,
And Others Who Will
Want To Journey
With You For A Lifetime,

IF ONLY FOR AWHILE

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Often Wonder
Wistfully,
Why It Had To Be
The Way It Was

A Chance Meeting
A Sudden Attraction
And Passions
That Set Off

SHE WAS MY ANGEL

By Chalres Robert Lindholm

She Was My Angel

And Lived With Me, For Awhile

MEANT TO BE’S

There Are Moments
In Our Lives
That Are Meant To Be

OLD LOVE STILL REMAINS

By Charles Robert Lindholm

Old Love Still Remains

In The Darkness Of Your Heart

LOVE NEVER DIES

By Charles Robert Lindholm

Love Never Dies
Though You Think It Has
You’ve Tried To
Kill Off Past Loves
And Memories
And It Seems
Successful

HAIKU: ISLAND MEMORIES

By Charles Robert Lindholm

Tropical Plants Fill

Hidden Truth

Fragrance of the harbour
Familiar to me
with salt and oil and pitch and tar
and yes, of course, the sea

FLY BY

By Charles Robert Lindholm

The Days
And Years
Fly By
Faster
Than We Think

Time Seems
To Trudge
Along For So Long
Until It Doesn’t
Anymore

The Memory Lane…

“I wish we could choose which memories to remember and which to forget”

Deep inside my heart I was waiting for this day

 “In your light I learn how to love, In your beauty, I learn how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.”

WHEN YOU CAN BEHAVE YOURSELF

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Was,
Shall We Say
A Bit Difficult
As A Child

What Were
The Words
They Used?
