    About this ebook

    Inside this book you will find passionate poems that will make you want to read them over and over again, so sit back, kick up your feet, relax, release some stress and let the Gift of Poetry open your eyes and melt your heart.

    Things kept coming to my head, and the soonest I could get a paper and pen, the sooner I wrote them down. The religious poems are to inspire people to believe in our heavenly father. He is always there for us. He gave me the talent, and now it is time to repay the favor. The love poems are dedicated to my wife, and I hope people will dedicate them to the one they love. The fun ones are to bring a smile to people's faces. The poems are my thoughts and feelings.

      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
