For the love of...: A Poetry Collection

By E M M Sutherland

For the love of...: A Poetry Collection is a heartfelt collection of poems that are reflective, old-school rhyming/near-rhyming poems that mainly depict different types of love and saying goodbye to loved ones.

Although there are only 28 poems, the book is divided into four sections. The first three sections are about different types of love: a mother's love; love of family and friends; passionate and compassionate love. The fourth section: seeing things in different ways contains the three final poems which reveal a somewhat unique way of looking at seemingly simple subjects.

Saying goodbye to your mother is always difficult, but is aptly portrayed in, "Our Angel" - Our God lent us an angel / To walk with us on earth / To lift us up when down we fell / You'd think each one her child from birth."

The section on passionate and compassionate love is suitable for any age group as exemplified by, "My Love" - The sunbeam glides across the bed / Alighting on your sleepy head / I roll an inch or maybe two / So that closer I can be to you."

A poetic debut that will leave you anxiously awaiting a sequel.
