Book of Poetry: The Many Silences of Love
from 10.00
"Called an “artist unique” by Professor Joseph Stapleton of the Arts Students League in New York, H. Lloyd Weston presents a compelling new collection of poetry that brilliantly captures the subtleties and heartbreaks of love in our digital age.
With passion, humor, style, and musicality, The Many Silences of Love tempts our senses with vivid imagery and beautiful language. Weston delves into the time-tested forms of communicating love in this fast-paced, social-media drenched world. Through his intense prose, he advocates for a return to the “taste of rose-red lips”, the “soft touch of hands”, and the “quivering stream of tears” that should be a part of every loving relationship.
Weston explores love in all its varied guises. Whether it be unrequited love as shown in “Moment,” pondering what might have been in “I Often Think of You,” or reveling in the freedom of being sincerely in love in “What You Mean to Me,” Weston creates a moving portrait of this deepest of all human emotion.
Full of sweeping emotion, The Many Silences of Love will capture your heart and stir your very soul."
“ In The Arms Of Love
We lie intertwined in love’s arms
And are transformed-
Like reflection of sky in water.
We confess our love in tears
That send ripples
Across lake waters.
And I drink from your lips
A wet kiss
That makes me feel good all over.
We lie transfixed in love’s
Hypnotic spell, fully clothed
Except for our naked emotions.
That is how love
Forces us to honestly reveal
Our true nature of self.”
