5.0 out of 5 stars Poetry to open the soul to all the many seasons of love., February 4, 2000

This review is from: Dreaming of Love (Paperback)

The poetry of Gil Saenz opens the soul to experience the exhilaration of young love, savor the comfort of established love, and reflect on the memories of love long lost. Dreaming Of Love showcases a collection of verse both graceful and compelling. Love Is Never A Cliche: Although the subject of love/Is in all music we hear today,/It doesn't necessarily mean/That love is just a cliche./And even if "love' is on the TV/And soap operas each day,/The freshness and beauty of love/Never becomes a mere cliche./Either love or experience/The vacuum of negative decay./Love is nature's way,/Of telling us how to live/With health and happiness always./Like the air we breathe,/And the food we eat/Love is vital and basic./It is never simply a cliche.
