James
Taris
CHANCE FOR ROMANCE
Love
songs and poems
This
book (ebook) is a crazy assortment of love songs and poems. They were
written over a 31-year period, so within these 'pink pages' you will
find an interesting mix of points of view ... from an ignorant teenager
all the way through to, well, an ignorant adult!
Love
and lust are almost synonymous nowadays, as more and more couples place
a higher priority on sexual fulfillment in their relationships. On
the other hand, 'love', used to describe 'old-fashioned love' - caring
for your partner, and also love for your family and friends - will never
die.
James
Taris is not an expert when it comes to love. He's just like most people
... ignorant about many aspects of love, but hopeful of the 'bliss'
that love can bring, as promised by so many poets and writers through
their books, movies and songs. James wrote these poems in an attempt
to make sense from so many opposing feelings and emotions he was going
through at various stages of his life. Some
were postive. Some were negative. Many were frustrating andalways challenging.
Nevertheless, by writing about his love thoughts, he managed to weather
the love storm and lead a very happy love live.
These
love poems are written in chronological order (newest to oldest). It's
a journey you will find quite interesting and amusing, especially when
you read about James' humble beginnings. The
autobiographical stories that accompany each poem will also help you
become more acquainted with, and relate more to, James' life story.
Kermit
the Frog once said, "It's not easy being green". And this
definitely applies to the love cycle!

LOVE
POEMS
"Some
are happy, some are sad and some are just plain ridiculous."
... James
It's
not just poetry
James
has developed a unique way of presenting his poems. Instead
of merely offering a selection of creative and entertaining
poetry, he has also added a couple of other useful and attractive
features:
1)
Autobiographical trailers
After
each poem, James gives some addtional information about
when, where, why and how he wrote the poem and/or a glimpse
of his life and activities around the time the poem was
written. Thus adding an interesting insight with each poem.
2)
Creative images (in ebook only)
Plain
text on a page can often look bland, so each poem features
an image with 2 imaginatively manipulated versions to decorate
the poetry page.
So
prepare yourselves for a literal and visual extravaganza.
What
people are saying
Rt.
Hon. James Taris, You are as full of life as anyone can wish
for! What makes you genius? Who makes you genius? How it all
happens just like that in your case? All these sorts of questions
can be answered in one sentence! "A POET IS BORN NOT MADE!
AND SO IS THE GENIUS!" No one can be a writer like James
Taris by taking up some story-writing course or just going to
some sort of university! You can't be Bruce Lee by just joining
a Kung Fu club of some sort! All in all you are like a mighty
pacific whale which dosen't need swimming lessons! A sort of
albatross who does not need Pan-American to fly! ... Please
try not to change your way of life as it is wonderful as it
is! ... Dhanjisha! (India)
I
read your poem 'She's A Gorilla'. Personally I wouldn't
say I hate it but it is not my style. The one I really like
is "Heaven". The others are more like lyrics
and as I am not very musical I can't make them come alive. My
failure despite being named after the saint of music! Like you,
I write poems because it is therapeutic. Cecilia
(Australia)
I
had a first glance at your web site which is really great (read
also some of your poems which I found very expressive, personal
and professional and would love sending you some of mine ...
but they're all in German.) Dagmar (Germany)
