Classical Love Poetry

This lovely book pairs selections of translated Greek and Roman verse from Homer, Sappho, Virgil, Horace, and Ovid, among others, with fine examples of paintings, sculpture, vases, and decorative objects. The excerpts, which cover the period from the eighth century B.C. to the early Middle Ages, were chosen from famous works, such as Homer's Iliad as well as less well-known pieces, such as the writings of the Greek poet Ibycus. This book demonstrates that the human preoccupation with love in all its forms has inspired writers for millennia: from the expression of enduring faithfulness and familial affection in Homer's description of Hector and Andromache to the passionate intensity portrayed by the later Greek lyric poets and the light-hearted depiction of love as a lost little boy by the anonymous authors of the Inacreontea. The book includes a brief introduction to Greek and Roman views on love and marriage, a short biographical note on each of the major poets, and a glossary of mythical and geographical names.

Many people experience love on a daily basis, but often ignore and fail to acknowledge it. Many of Vee Bdosa's poems originated from requests by people on the Internet to write them a poem. The resulting poetry received as gifts and read by husbands, wives, boyfriends, and at weddings and even at a funeral. "Love Poetry" takes you from a baby's laugh and smile to a girl's first kiss. From first kiss to marriage, to the failing of love and the tragedy of divorce and being alone.

The Many Silences of Love

Called an ?artist unique? by Professor Joseph Stapleton of the Arts Students League in New York, H. Lloyd Weston presents a compelling new collection of poetry that brilliantly captures the subtleties and heartbreaks of love in our digital age. With passion, humor, style, and musicality, The Many Silences of Love tempts our senses with vivid imagery and beautiful language. Weston delves into the time-tested forms of communicating love in this fast-paced, social-media drenched world. Through his intense prose, he advocates for a return to the ?taste of rose-red lips?, the ?soft touch of hands?, and the ?quivering stream of tears? that should be a part of every loving relationship. Weston explores love in all its varied guises. Whether it be unrequited love as shown in ?Moment,? pondering what might have been in ?I Often Think of You,? or reveling in the freedom of being sincerely in love in ?What You Mean to Me,? Weston creates a moving portrait of this deepest of all human emotion. Full of sweeping emotion, The Many Silences of Love will capture your heart and stir your very soul.
