Love's Recipe: a collection of Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615851662)

Foreword Love's recipe is not something you will find in anyone's cookbook. It's a tradition passed down from one generation to the next, from parents to children through displays of affection, working together to achieve like goals, supporting one another's passions, child-rearing and discipline. Love is a mixture of family game nights, dinner conversations, help with homework, and vacations. WE watch and emulate what we've seen, remove what may not be to our particular tastes, and, when it's time, prepare it in our own homes, with our own families. Love is a tradition, habitual and genetic. In this collection, Terry Ware takes love and breaks it down to its core elements: the good and the bad. He stirs up memories of what we've seen and heard from childhood on into our own present existences. He makes you smile, blush, cry, and pause, even if briefly, to consider what can be done differently. This collection shows that good times can become great and bad times can get better. He also gives the harsh reminder that there is a very thin line between bliss and misery. Terry makes you acknowledge that the scales can be tipped at any given moment. I urge you to read this collection at least three times. Once for enjoyment, twice for education, and three times for edification. Take in every word. The seamless flow of the writing, and the lessons it provides, respectively. Though all poets begin writing for themselves, it is proven, in this work that the universal purpose of poetic creation is to serve us all. After your third ingestion, sit back with a pen and pad, and document your own recipe. Jamesha Miner Henderson Poetic Advisory, LLC
