"Love at First Site" is my analysis of the emotions which go into looking at a photo of someone or meeting them socially and how one can feel as a result. However, I don't stop there. As you read deeper into the book, you will read about relationships which become closer and more intense. No longer are they just in the mind of the writer, but now, they have entered the world of experience.As a teacher and student, I became familiar with many different types of poetry. And though I admire the works of writers like Sylvia Plath, John Berryman, Hart Crane and Wallace Stevens (as well as all of the Romantic poets, young and old), my major influences might be poets like Edgar Lee Masters and Edgar Arlington Robinson. While the difficult poets I have mentioned above seem to think naturally in metaphor (and thus the density and complexity of their work), I do not have that gift. My poems tend to be more prosaic (which is not to say they are not poems) and my main goal is help the reader experience beauty and loss: the two main ingredients that one of my favorite poets, Edgar Allan Poe advocated.
