    About this ebook

    A "lanquid" taster for readers desiring to read about Robert's work. In this twenty-five poem collection, he grasps at the essence of love, the romance in the first shared glance, the mystic thought of life after death. Reaching back to his second collection of poetry, "Into the Forest," these poems are visionary for the romantic at heart.
