"An artist of words. The poet beautifully describes the emotion(s)
as if working with paint on canvas. A passionate and brilliantly
painted canvas of words on a very complex theme."
★★★★★ Readers' Favorite, Review By Emily-Jane Hills Orford "Love,
nature, wonderment, humanity, and the pulse of life are just a few
of the currents that run through the pages of To You With Love:
Selected Poems . . . . It is a collection of poetry that celebrates
love, the lover, and intimate moments and emotions. . . . As one
reads from poem to poem, and from stanza to stanza, one can feel a
movement, strong whispers of something beautiful and noble and fair
stirring within their soul."
★★★★★ Readers' Favorite, Review By Ruffina Oserio "The romantic in
many people will be delighted by the work. . . . a highly quotable
volume."
★★★★★ Readers' Favorite, Review By K.C. Finn "To You With Love:
Selected Poems . . . is. . . written in contemporary free verse and
compiled as a moving tribute to the most intimate theme in the
world. The free verse format is unique in how it provides for each
page to take shape - literally - as the line construction is as
fluid and artfully composed as the individual pieces themselves . .
. . (written) with a lovely depth of emotion . . . . I . . . highly
recommend this book."
★★★★★ Readers' Favorite, Review By Jamie Michele " . . a collection
of poems about love, passion, and companionship. This book is food
for the soul. Gary has taken his inspiration from nature and
described our innermost feelings with references to the seasons,
wildlife and other natural phenomena. To You With Love: Selected
Poems has avoided sentimentality and replaced it with stunning
descriptions of blazing sunsets and translucent rain."
★★★★★ Readers' Favorite, Review By Tracy Young"These carefully
chosen selections mix images of natural surroundings with ideals of
human feelings and thoughts. Burns . . . creates visual flashes -
of a harvest moon, the leaves of autumn, the early morning light -
that are tied to the fleeting, freeing and ultimately enduring
qualities of . . . love. The free verse style offering at times an
echo of mystery and of a spiritual linkage between the natural
world and the realm of the heart. The effect is both calming and
inspiring. Those already acquainted with the life force hovering in
his words will be further fed by To You with Love, and the
collection is a good place to start for new readers." ★★★★ from
