Produktbeschreibung

Revised Edition: Same poetic content you know and love, but with a few minor edits, an updated format, adjusted cover, and added praise!

Love is a mess and while some choose to clean and organize it, others choose to run around and play in it. There are different ways to love, ones to love, and kinds of love. So, let's fall in, rise out of, and be in love together. With five sections (i.e. You, Them, Life, God, Me), "Rise in Love: A Poetry Chapbook" is a collection of poems celebrating the many nuances love has, reminding readers that just because love is complicated doesn't mean it can't also be wonderful. In a society where everyone is divided across justice-oriented issues, this collection emphasizes that love is what can bring us back together.

"A provocative debut collection of reflective and inspirational poetry that speaks to the soul. Rise in Love is intentional, emotional, and beautifully saturated with simple complexity. Ms. Rivera pens about You, Them, Life, God, and Me in a fresh, relatable way, resulting in a collection of works that is both genuine and authentic. Ms. Rivera has seamlessly blended love's coming-of-age pain with prose for a unique and personal experience that will stimulate memories and immerse readers."

- Kerry Evelyn, author, "Crane's Cove" Series* "[I]maginative, personal, and moving...Poetry comes from passion that is to be shared with others. Rivera's poems have heart. They are as visceral as they are thoughtful. A sly humor at times. I might have written 'Grateful Existence' myself, at 22. How many have been in the same place? Now 82, still grateful."

- Diana Morley, author, "Spreading Like Water" and "Splashing"
