Genre: Poetry
Title: Glorious Autumn, Love in Maturity
Author: Delma Luben
Glorious Autumn
Crowns the season
Of life and love on
Earth-and then Elysium!

Poetry written with the wisdom of age and maturity with a deep spiritual connection so obvious in every verse; this is not the poetry of young love but a long lasting deeper love that only comes with years of togetherness and knowing.

Works reflect the aging process and all of the changes it brings:

Though times take its tolls,
aging me constantly
when I add up my life
and see the whole picture
I discover a peacemaker,
ever negotiating......

Poet, Delma Luben is a lifelong student of religious philosophy, an honorary member of The Int. Society of Poets for Peace and has published thousands of poems. She is contributing editor of Writer's World magazine and the author of The Writing World.

The painful loss of a loved one:
When angels come to take
a loved one to the higher
level of existence, suddenly
here is a wintry world....

Or the glory of mature love:

Love that survives
every day mundanity
that year upon year
keeps burning
requires nuturing.......

An excellent collection of poetry for the more mature readership who will instantly identify with the emotion and life experiences.
