Heart's Desire

This book is a poetic complement to the Valentine's Exhibit at The Adobe Gallery, in Castro Valley, California. The resulting collection, titled, like the exhibition, "HeArt's Desire", is full of the sultry, sexy stories of new beginnings, spurned lovers and the long smoldering of the married faithful. It celebrates the artistic with more than a few references to the power of revelation available to those who hold the brush and contemplate the painting. It invites us all, deeper, closer, to a world of our collaborative collage. The poems, stories, sayings and reflections recorded here are heartfelt and tender, searing and still. The assembled community of writers is an inspired and pedigreed one. We are each grateful for your kind eyeballs and response to our collected work.
