An anthology of free-verse poems and a collection of simple watercolor paintings

An Imperfect Lover is an anthology of free-verse poems and a collection of simple watercolor paintings, many reproduced in full color, by Georgianna Orsini. Evoking mystique with its rhythmic and haunting verse, An Imperfect Lover cherishes the bright spots even in an imperfect life. "Love Becomes Us" 'They won't last,' they said, / knowing our unvoiced differences, / sure your fickle reputation / and my more rooted past / would clash. // Made for this mystery / how far love goes, / past time and effort - / less tears, to find just us / was what we wanted most.
