Poems For My Wife: Love Poems for Non-Romantics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578654911)

Poems For My Wife is a series of short love poems written by Nate Fish when he was living in Uganda, Africa. He wrote the book as a gift for his then girlfriend. The poems are not typical for the genre. The language is plain. Many of them are explicit and sexual. Distinguished poet and biographer Paul Mariani says, "These are the work of a young man very much in love in a spiritual sense revealing itself through a tactically physical sense. In this they remind me of the erotic poems of Catullus and Sappho." Finally, a collection of romance poetry for non-romantics.
