There are few things that so resemble an open wound like young love. In this slim volume, Warren De Mills expresses and exposes all the excitement, illusion and angst of a young man in the throes and woes of infatuation and early love. He gives us the entire spectrum of unexpected emotions … newness, longing, loneliness, rejection, fear. Fraught with anxiety, replete with the thrills and pitfalls of life’s most exciting discovery, the young lover evolves from the isolation of adjusting to manhood into the avid desire for a mate. These are poems with a universal theme … read them and be transported back to a time of tornadic transition.
