Summary: Cleavon, You Are Da' Man!!!!
Review: I felt like I had just been kissed after reading this book. This guy has to be writing from his heart and not his mind because you can feel the love and ache when you read this. I always say good writers can convey emotion through their words, and Cleavon Blair is no exception. There are two poems that just really hit home for me. They are "Julie" and "My Wait for Jill Kristine." In "Julie" the writer talks about his hurt from the loss of this love and asks God if He'll ever bless him with love again, but the answer from God comes in the very next poem, "My Wait for Jill Kristine." The person finds TRUE love, and realizes that his old love wasn't love at all. The words, "i am a man now... no longer taken with the beauty of girls..." is a powerful testament to this. Also, the poems "Love You Forever" and "Give It To You" are the sexiest poems I've ever read! VERY HOT STUFF!!!!!!

Summary: AMAZING...
Review: I received a copy of this book two weeks ago as a gift from my sister, and it is by far the most beautiful book I've ever read in my life. You can actually FEEL the author's words in this book. The poems "i miss you", "give it to you", and "my love" are amazing, as are all the poems in this book. I'm not a poetry fan, but this book has changed my perspective about poetry. This book is a must!Will make a great gift come Christmas. So, buy it!

Summary: Profound
Review: Just read the following excerpt and judge for yourself

"i am sinking...
...slowly, but very surely...
and all i need for survival is for you to sing me to sleep...each and every night...
i don't know who you are...
i don't know where you are...
but i know you're here somewhere...
...walking...waiting...
to meet the purity of my gaze...
to kiss the love into my heart...
honey...
you must hurry because i'm very near the end of my rope...
where my heart will wither and die...
turn into a pile of dust...where it will settle for a heart not destined for me...
where it will settle into a life of unhappiness...
because it thirsts for love...doing anything for it...no matter the shame...
so honey...please understand...
i do not want your absence tonight...
i need you here...right by my side...
living...
loving...
kissing...
... for love... "

Quite amazing to me. The desire and desperation of this love that he hasn't found yet, but so desperately needs comes through his writing. Simply Breathtaking. The name of that poem is "your absence". Also, "murderer", "my love", "become one", "love you in beauty", and "love you forever" are some of the greatest love poems I have ever read. This book will be a classic!

Summary: A Really Good Book of Poetry
Review: You know, when I first read this book, I didn't "get it." I reread the book, and I realized how special it was. It's like this book is real. It's words don't feel fabricated, like the author was thinking of what to write, but that these words are real emotions. The love in this book is real!!!!! The pain in this book is real!!! The love of God in this book is real!!! I actually cried the second time I read this book because it truly speaks of what we all go through at some point in our lives. We all search for love, we all search for acceptance, we all search for ourselves, and that is what this book is about. It really is quite a piece of work. I also agree with what the other reviewer wrote, every woman should own a copy of this book. I just ordered copies for my two sisters, my mother, and even my younger brother. I HIGHLY recommend this book! Through the tears shed while reading, a beautiful smile seemed to dance across my face. Really quite beautiful.
