Seasons of Love

By Kevin Rakeen White

Seasons of Love captures the essence and matriculation of the vast feelings and phases of love. This book hits deep into the core with tones and melodies that make literary orchestrations that will have you envisaging scenes with immense clarity. White highlights the journey of a true man with a thrust and quest for love and in Seasons of Love he denotes the power, the struggle and magnificent by capsulizing it with a inconspicuous simplicity and straightforward complexity. It is inevitably a must read for those looking for love, lost love or in love.

Dedication 

For every beginning there’s an end, and ours have arrived with smiles and roses in heart blaming no one person for their faults or wrong doings; just the reflection of time and space. We were well aware of every moment and action that came into our presence, so full of love, life, laughter, and loneliness at times. It was like living in the season. In the midst of the summer winter never crossed our mind even though we knew it was apart of the cycle of life. We had no intention of seeing summer in the spring, but it happened, and we happened and all else didn’t matter. And just as winter is cold, we grew cold; and why, we shall leave that for time to decipher. Where are you now, as I sit here with I and I alone thinking of what was and what could have been? I loved you, I love you, and will forever, love you one half of us.

Thank you 

I would like to take this time to give thanks to God for allowing an element as powerful as LOVE to exist in the same space as all things of God. I am forever grateful for my ability to live in the moment and report back to the past and future. I would like to give thanks to the illustrators of my life and her who time took to another level. I would like to give big respects to my cover designer Joseth Johnson and my photographer Ronald Gray for all their time
