MY RATING: I've got to enjoy only 6 out of the 35 new poems/prose in this 3rd book of Lang Leav. I was anticipating that this could be better than her 2nd book, Lullabies. But I was quite disappointed that it didn't meet my expectations. These are the 6 poems/prose that I like in this book: Virtual Love  A Writer's Plea Take me someplace where I can feel something—I want to give away my heart. Tell me his name so I can know love when it speaks to me. Give me someone I can write about. Dear Love  In Love You’ve not yet had your heart in halves, so little do you know of love— to tell me I will soon forget, there will be others to regret. Now all the years have proved you wrong, my love for him burns bright and strong; you can’t divide the stars from night— from love there can be no respite. Hope  The Saddest Thing   |
