Bought this book as a wedding gift. Some poems are very good. Some are kind of mawkish.

My favorites from this anthology:
All the precious words
you and I have exchanged
have found their way
into the heart of the universe
one day they'll pour on us
like whispering rain
helping us arise
from our roots again

and this one:
those eyes of yours
teach me divine laws
that love of yours
makes my soul spark
if i'm safe
from evil eyes
it's only because
i'm blessed
by your eyes
