Review Summary: Really Beautiful Expressions of Friendship
Review: It is very easy to find a beautiful love poem. Passion is such a strong emotion that it has inspired countless lyrics. But it is very difficult to find a great friendship-love poem. That more stable type of love seems to move under the radar. Nevertheless, there are some wonderful poems that express love for friends, and Peter Washington has found the best of them and included them in this wonderful collection. Some of the best poems included are (the originally titled) "Friendship" found in traditional Aztec verse, "Love and Friendship" by Bronte, "My Lovely Friends" by Sappho, "Being Her Friend" and "The Word" by John Masefield, and finally, "To My Friends" by Primo Levi. These poems really moved me and gave me a lot of insight into my relationships. They also helped me to express my love for my friends to them. Peter Washington has (actually) truly made the process of selecting poems for an anthology an art, and I cannot thank him and the authors of these poems enough.
