Chance for Romance: Love Poems - A Life in Rhyme James Taris

From age 13 to 53, James wrote candidly about his relentless pursuit for love. These poems reveal the ups and downs he went through on that journey. This book is a crazy assortment of love songs, poems and stories. They were written over a 40-year period, so within these 'pink pages' you will find an interesting mix of points of view ... from an ignorant young teenager all the way through to ... well ... a less ignorant adult. Love and lust are almost synonymous nowadays, as more and more couples place a higher priority on sexual fulfillment in their relationships. On the other hand, 'love', used to describe 'old-fashioned love' - caring for your partner, and also love for your family and friends - will never die. James wrote these poems in an attempt to make sense from so many opposing feelings and emotions he was going through at various stages of his life. Some were positive. Some were negative. Many were frustrating but always challenging. Nevertheless, by writing about his love thoughts, he managed to weather the love storm and lead a very happy love live. "But all of my nights are free for you / And all of the things that we've wanted to do / Yes all of my nights are free for you / To hug and to kiss and to make love too."
