Beschreibung

"A distinctive collection of sonnets about love, romance and the enduring power of poetry, providing meaning, even today, for the special moments the author experienced during the "love generation.""--

Autor

Inspired by an ideal love affair that fortuitously befell two star-crossed lovers in 1968, the early sonnets (1971-1975) chronicled this magical love story as it unfolded and evolved. These early sonnets were part of the communications and sensibilities shared by idealistic lovers who too soon realized their endless love, only to leave their idyllic romance among the ruins of the "love generation." The author's more recent sonnets (2020-2024) look back fifty years at this storied affair with a more seasoned and sensible lens. The author reconciles the special moments and the idealism he experienced in the 1970s as "love in the moment," while celebrating the reality and romanticism of the poet's long and enduring marriage to yet another idyllic dream. These unique sonnets demonstrate why past experiences in love and romance can have meaning and value even in the twenty-first century, where the realization of true love can be far more complex and challenging.The author was born and raised in northern New Mexico, where his family settled more than three hundred years ago. A poet since his first year in college in 1968, his early literary works were intended to preserve in prose and rhyme the "special moments" and the sensibilities that defined him in his youth. As a trial lawyer and executive manager later in life, his poetic skills brought energy and creativity to his legal and business writings. Now in his golden years, his life experiences, realized dreams and expressive writing style bring meaning and character to his contemporary works.
