November Chills Remind Me

November Chills Remind Me As November chill creeps in I think of June and a friend Sun beaming so eagerly down our spot at the edge of town Silent moments holding me to a time and her pitiful plea O' that this day last forever and my love leave me never She saw farther than I the thought made her cry I thought her so wrong right she was all along Clime cooled and so did we leaves fell from our tree October faded swiftly away Parted on a chilly November day November chills I think of her so gone, I know not where Shall June ever come again will ever I see my friend Sun shines down upon my Soul keeping her should have been my goal. R.J. Lindley 09, 11, 1976 note: Tomorrow will be two weeks and no new writes by me. That is other than my private writings at home.. Found this in a old poetry book tucked in a chest with divorce papers from my first wife. Seemed fitting to present it because , well its November now. Answer, no never saw her again. She moved away, I lost contact. Life sent its distractions and the universe spun ever onward..

Well written, the emotions are to touch and feel here. Very sad, but honest and that's what makes good poetry! For whatever it is worth, please don't stop posting your poems!

Robert, A very great poem, but very sad. The challenges that face us all in life are many times not pleasant. The depth of thought and feeling in your work here is very obvious. The words leap from the page. All the best my friend. And a "7" from me on this superb, but sad poem. Cheers, Gary

This poem touches the heart with depth of feeling because I think we have all had someone in our lives that we cared about and have lost. It is beautifully constructed and touching Robert. I loved it! I hope you become inspired again soon as I know what it feels like to have a dry spell. Blessings, Connie

Hi Robert! This is such a very sad and beautiful poem! I am not ashamed saying that reading it brought tears to my eyes, feel so much pain and sadness thu your sad words and memories and a yearning of what could have been, but for some reason wasn't anymore. Her love and the loss of your marriage, and loss of a perhaps a great and true love, your soulmate back then. So many years have gone by now. Thanks for sharing this special poem. A 7 from me. Hope that you're really happy and her ( your first wife ) too. Best wishes! :) xxxx D.
