About Love Poets Unite Worldwide

Years ago I wrote this short poem, between the serious and the facetious: You need to avoid all the mawkishness, thoseSweetish affectations that so often fillLove poems - You told yourselfAnd that's why you didn't write any(from 'Fragments of Memory', 'Fragment CXXX') Of course it is an ironic remark, as I wanted to induce a smile in the reader. And I can assure you that I've written love poems -at least a few!Moreover, how can one write a "poem of the soul," without the powerful help of the feeling of LOVE?(Fabrizio Frosini)--The variety in poems presented here is quite astonishing, and I can say that I found words of real value in each of them.(Tom Billsborough
