Synopsis

In this life-enriching book devoted to the experience of love, Roger Housden presents ten poems that can stir in each of us one of the deepest, most powerful sensations known to mankind. Guiding us through the beautifully expressed thoughts of ten individual poets, Housden invites us to explore the full range of love, from the intimately personal, to love for fellow man, for the world and for God. Taking each poem in turn, we follow Housden's personal exploration of its themes as he unlocks the poem's meaning in the context of his own life. From his perceptive, penetrating commentary we receive a touching insight into the author's own spiritual journey through love, as well as the chance to truly appreciate the depth and impact of the poem in our own hearts.

Both a beautifully inspiring gift book, and a supportive volume in which to find comfort and light in troubled times, Ten Poems to Open Your Heart is a book instilled with the power to change the lives of all who read it.
