This is a collection of over 100 deeply personal love poems that Ken (Mr. N) wrote to Joelle (Mrs. N) in the years before they were married. Some take up a whole page, and some are only a couple lines, but all of them convey the inner feelings and utmost thoughts of the author towards his soon-to-be bride.
My favorite poems in this book were "What You Mean to Me", "When Souls Unite", "Dreams", "Life's Simple Pleasures", "The Light of Love", "Thirty-One Days", "Curveballs", and "On My Wedding Day (Wedding Vows)".
This is an example of the from-the-heart beauty of these poems:

Curveballs

Life keeps pitching them
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But you’re always there with me
To keep me going
Encouraging me to never stop.

Always there to help me
To keep a smile on my face
You make the walk through life so good
You’re the one I could never replace.

While not all of the poems in this book may be "good enough" to be ranked among the likes of Robert Frost and Walt Whitman, they are very dear and precious in their own way, and they all tell a very special story. This makes up for anything the flow of the poetry may lack. These poems not only tell the story of a love, but also of a life, as you come to know better the mysterious couple who go be the nom de plume of N.N. Light. Four stars ****. ( )
