River Falls

About the Book

Love is a mist, miasmic
Fair fog of foul phantasms perfumed
Desire's devious Djinn
And our wildest wishes its gem

Love is an unguent unsure
A blessed balm of yearning's yen
Hope's healer; a goddess good and strong
Like Nature's force, fickle, uncertain

Love is a skill, shared
A craft kenned in co-creator's kiln
Built of blood-tides and dreams, but
Love is only as strong as we

River Falls is a collection of poems that weaves through the days of a man in love. Poignant perspective, captivated adoration, and spiritual reconnaissance are reflected in author Stacey J. Enslow's meaningful words.

Sometimes ecstatic, sometimes wry, these tender works touch upon the phases of love and longing of union with the Divine, which is sought in every human experience we manifest. With titles such as "A Gift We Craft," "Wild Ones," and "Baking Day," Enslow's words flawlessly convey the universal theme of love.

River Falls allows you to encounter the Divine both as the lover that you are and in the lovers among us.
