I stumbled upon this beautiful old book in a bookstore I'd just discovered. It smelled so nice and was so beautiful that I had to have it in my life. I wasn't expecting to fall in love with poetry within. I found clever poems full of flirtation, love and divorce and mere pages after I would be reeling from longing, truth, loneliness and beauty. I'm shocked that this mans poems aren't more well known because they're wonderful. I cannot put into words the happiness this book gives me and its a travesty that I've no one to talk about this book with.
