Poems for the Heart: Love Poems and Passions Iii

By George Ergo Espinosa

POEMS FOR THE HEART (Love Poems and Passions III) is a book on poetry, exemplifying human experience that the feeling of love respects no boundary of expression in a heart-to-heart intimacy between two souls. Love is love no matter how long or short its sojourn in the life of a person, no matter how deep or shallow its degree, or no matter how extent or narrow the space it occupies in ones heart. Truly, love is love no matter how it is expressed in different passions: sharing, caring, giving, receiving, laughing, crying, hurting, leaving, pleading, forgiving, or even losing and getting it back again and again. Love never changes its effects and colors: the happiness and contentment in the heart and soul of its beholder.
