Love Is

Book Description HTML

During the past thirty odd years with my love partner I've often pondered the meaning of love is it just electro chemical connections in the brain is loving a sibling more satisfying than loving a pet can loving a parent be the same as loving a spouse is love really more powerful than superman is love of a good wine comparable with the love of a good view will love really conquer all does love taste as nice as chocolate can love overcome hate just what the hell is love anyway I'm still as confused today as when i started out on life's great adventure all i know is living life without love is like trying to read sentences without punctuation not impossible just far far harder to enjoy

Peter Barns

Author - Poet - Versifier Born in Harlsden on the outskirts of London in 1943, Peter Barns spent his formative years living beside Regent's Park. Educated at a Secondary Modern school, he left with just one qualification in 'O' Level Art. Passing through a variety of occupations after leaving school, he finally ended up working in the construction industry as an electrician. After taking his City & Guilds, he became an electrical engineer and spent the next twenty years working on building sites. Somewhere in there he got married and divorced - a couple of times - and had two children. He moved to the Highlands of Scotland in the late 1980's along with his partner.
