Lost Poetry by Victoria Valentine. 36 passionate poems of love and loss with additional prose and haiku in this 76 page book of romance: These poems often contain intense touching of words and skin between speaker and object of the poem, but often they mourn of that which cannot be found...the search for peace within self which seems unattainable without a significant other. We will be swept away in a torrent of sometimes breezy, sometimes gusty, near guilty pleasures in this incredibly intense work which is typical of the fervent style of Victoria Valentine. This woman's poetry is just a match waiting to be struck...and when it is...look out, because the blaze may singe your perusing eyes. jacob erin-cilberto (author of an Abstract Waltz)
