"love is larger than the universe, but contained complete in you and me"
Love Poems for Leah is a collection of poems that illustrates love's potential to connect two souls together and empower them to create much more than the sum of their individual capabilities. Through its journey - awakening love, intense love, love empowering, heartbreak, and love of family and friends - the heart soars, crashes, grows, and inspires.
Surrounding this collection of poems is the story of a young woman who is non-verbal and has severe or "classic" autism, and her father/caregiver (the author) and how his development prepared him to provide for her unique needs and love her more than words can say
The Leah Books
The Leah Books series tells the story of the care and development of a young woman with severe autism, provided by her father, the author. The heart of the series is a cookbook of the meals that he prepares for her daily (Cooking for Leah) and a book that details the techniques he has developed to provide her care (Caring for Leah). Supporting books of poems (Leah is a Masterpiece and Love Poems for Leah) and quotations (Messages for Anthony, Daniel, and Leah) shaped the author's growth and prepared him to care for Leah. All proceeds from the Leah Books will go to her special needs trust fund.
