Three little lines of poetry

so easily I read

but then I found them wandering

deep inside my head

I STRUGGLE TO WRITE IN CURSIVE

By Charles Robert Lindholm

A Simple
Thoughtless
And Automatic Act
When I Was Young
But Not Now
The Years
And Tears
Have Changed That

Of this world…

A face lay there in eternal sleep,
No smile.
No frown.
I wonder,
“After all, smiles and frowns are of this world”.

AN AWAKENING TOUCH

By Bree Leto – Secretthoughtswithin and
Charles Robert Lindholm – The Reluctant Poet

Our first touch–
with only your fingers
slowly brushing my hand
sent an extraordinary
jolt of electricity,
through my whole body
that I had never felt before.

The twinkle
in your eye
sparked imaginings
that lit up my soul

The smile on your lips
whispered to my heart
making its beating race
as a blush showed
upon my face

An unintended touch
that somehow came to be
as your fingers brushed my hand
and awoke a part of me
I never knew
was waiting there

I shared a touch of the new
and a lingering stare with you
and hoped

for more

LONGING FOR YOU

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Am A Silly Person
I Think

Believing In Things
So Improbable
Yet Hoping
Beyond Hope
That They Shall
Become A Reality

A HOPELESS LOVE AFFAIR

By Charles Robert Lindholm

The Full Moon Calls To Me
As She Whispers My Name
From The Midnight Sky

THE WIND WHISPERS

BY CHARLES ROBERT LINDHOLM

THE WIND WHISPERS
IN THE TREES
THE LEAVES
RUSTLE THEIR REPLIES

THE PIED PIPER WIND
SPINS STORIES
TELLING TEMPTING LIES

COME FLY AWAY
COME FLY AWAY
UPON MY GENTLE BREEZE
LEAVE THE TREES
COME BE WITH ME
FAR, FAR FROM EARTHBOUND TREES

COME BE WITH ME
COME DREAM WITH ME
COME LOOK AT ALL YOU’LL SEE
DRIFTING ON A GENTLE BREEZE
IF YOU’LL COME WITH ME

THE WIND WHISPERS
TO THE LEAVES
AND THEY BELIEVE
BUT THE AUTUMN WIND LIES

LETTING GO

By Nichole Sulpizio And Charles Robert Lindholm

She Heard The Door
Firmly Shut Behind Her
Then Slowly Turned Around
To Take A Final Look
As The Whisper From Her Heart
Said,

“Sometimes
There Is No Going Back”

The Listener

For the third time this week
He decided to visit in the middle of the night
Like all the other times

HIDDEN MESSAGES

Sometimes Hidden Messages
Are There In Plain Sight,
Not Really Hidden At All,

Just Waiting To Be Seen
In A Different Light

MESSAGES MEANT FOR YOU

Hidden In Cracks And Crevices

HE SEDUCED ME

He Seduced Me
With Lies
Sweeter Than Honey

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

YOU KNOW MY HEART

She Heard Me
Reaching Out To Her
With The Words
I Whispered
Softly Each Night

LISTENING TO WHISPERS

By Charles Robert Lindholm

She Sat On A Hill

I STILL HEAR YOUR VOICE

I STILL HEAR YOUR VOICE

By Charles Robert Lindholm 

In the silence of the night
in the wee small hours
I still hear your voice
whispering to me
and I feel your warmth
in my heart and my soul
and my body yearns for you

THE SEA WHISPERS TO ME

By Charles Robert Lindholm 

I hear her
from the cliffs
whispering
on the wind
as the waves
wash ashore
crashing against
the rocks below
