First Love Lament is a long-form poem, divided into a story format about the rise and fall of a first love. Writing to this first love, Princess Yvonne Dumas tells a story with poetic prose and poetry, highlighted by art from child artist, Anastasia Sielski, her daughter. The book opens with monologues about being independent and quickly unravels into the full devotion of a relationship, ending with the hindsight perspective that love has served its greater purpose. Both sad and poignant, the poetry weaves imagery of nature with simple prose to create a conversational nostalgia. "I want this book to resonate with people who have lost love along the way in life, because we all survive and move on from those losses." - Prin
