Time Stands Still for Lovers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Anne Bradstreet, Phillis Wheatley, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Edgar Allan Poe are some of the great American poets who have left a legacy of heartfelt love for those falling in love. In my meager attempt, I tried to put together a collection of my love poems, Silly Little Love Poems, that was self-published by [...] several years ago. Looking back at my work and now re-reading some of the Greats, I am embarrassed. Hippocrene Books re-published love poems in 1999 that covered the 17th through 20th centuries. As stated in the Preface, "the poems address the many and varied facets of love with all of its joys and heartbreaks . . . and transformed conventional styles and forms to forge a unique American poetic voice through their art." The book is a testament to time's temperate caress for lovers everywhere.
