"C.L. Brown is changing the world one brilliant and authentic poetic word at a time." - Kimberly Elise, American Actress
"Rupi Kaur and Gabbie Hanna lovers will bow to this trilogy of poetry by C.L. Brown" - Chelsea Girard, Book Reviewer
Nectar is a thoughtful and transcendent journey through spiritual growth, self-discovery, and the healing ways of love. Divided into three chapters, Guide of Life, Chrysalis, and Ambrosia, this collection of poems celebrates Spirit in its many forms.
Perhaps God is,
as I AM,
a tormented soul
finding solace within itself.
It is a celebration of uncontaminated affection.
Permit me stay between your lips,
and I'll prove to you
the soul has no need
for the waste of trees.
The reader will be taken on an unguided tour along three paths that so many of us find ourselves on at one time, or another; three seemingly separate journies, all leading to one place, love.
I must have lived a few lifetimes before this.
Because this love I carry for you,
it induces a sense of nostalgia for a time and a place
I've only seen bits and pieces of
immersed in your soft, unyielding, eyes.
And from listening to the way it speaks of you
with such clarity and wisdom,
I know it is very well acquainted with age.
So, hello, my everlasting!
I am dying to live you, again.
