For Valentine?s Day 1986, Ted Kooser wrote ?Pocket Poem? and sent the tender, thoughtful composition to fifty women friends, starting an annual tradition that would persist for the next twenty-one years. Printed on postcards, the poems were mailed to a list of recipients that eventually grew to more than 2,500 women all over the United States. Valentines collects Kooser?s twenty-two years of Valentine?s Day poems, complemented with illustrations by Robert Hanna and a new poem appearing for the first time. ø Kooser?s valentine poems encompass all the facets of the holiday: the traditional hearts and candy, the brilliance and purity of love, the quiet beauty of friendship, and the bittersweetness of longing. Some of the poems use the word valentine, others do not, but there is never any doubt as to the purpose of Kooser?s creations.

Love Gifts is a love sequence: the poetic rendering of the relationship between the minstrel and his muse over a long period. The poet uses the relationship of the two personages to investigate the human condition; hence the poems deal with dreams, desires, frustrations, hopes, contentment, and seeking meaning in life. The poetic canvas links the two figures to other relationships and happenings of their time in an all-embracing manner. In a way, minstrel and muse, lovers, are in these "songs" sharing a unique relationship with readers as they affirm their humanity and tell the complicated passage they navigate hourly and daily as members of a particular society. The relationship develops from the inexperience of neophytes, unsteady in their ways, to the stage of adepts who are sure of themselves and their "rites." The poems are thus a sort of courtship sequence.
An illustrated gift-book of poems for a person you love, even if that person is you. “Technically brilliant, emotionally beguiling and, at times, startling.”—A View from Here The Light of Love is the third book in the Twelve Poems to Inspire Gift Book series, a range of gift-books for festivals like Mother’s Day and Christmas, as well as milestones we all experience, including loss and new beginnings. The Light of Love celebrates Valentine’s Day—and love in all its forms. These twelve poems delve into the two sides of love—the euphoria and contentment we adore as well as the moments that test us along the way—while encouraging us to celebrate the full spectrum of life’s emotions viewed through a lens of love. In accessible, sometimes conversational, language the poet draws from her own marriage, friendships and family life, and reflects on love not just as collaborative emotion but an interior one we should also direct at ourselves. The poems in this collection are written to be reread often. Musing over their evocative yet accessible language, the reader will find comfort in the tender but powerful messages that only true love can provide. Strikingly real, with powerful candor and passion, the book contains two sections, Heartbreak and Heartease, each poem spectacularly illustrated by pictures the poet co-created with the AI artist app, Dream. Whoever needs this gift from you, these moving assertions of passion and pain, heart and healing will move you and reconnect you to the meaning of true love. A thoughtful gift for lovers on Valentine’s Day—or for a loved one any day of the year.
