Love: The Greatest Thing, Second Edition

For decades, readers from around the world of all ages, cultures, and religions have been touched in thought, heart, and soul by poet Den the Pen. From great university educators to religious theologians, from teens to parents to business pioneers, from the social elite, to the common man and woman on every continent, all have found humor, truth, and meaning in his work. According to Den, "This is poetry for everyone of every faith and for those of no faith at all." A Christian, a romantic, Den's early influences of C.S. Lewis, e.e. Cummings, and John Steinbeck surface throughout his poems as he puts 'everything on the table' and meets love face-to-face. With lyrical precision and abundant passion, Den digs into the five stages of Romance and of being 'IN' love, the 'risen life' of the Christian believer, the love of life itself, of friendship, family, and community. He takes us on spiritual journeys, takes us 'into' prayer, and in some of the most beautiful writing of a generation, explores the nature and love of the Trinity. This collection affirms the power of love in every life and is a treasury filled with comedy, tragedy, and thrilling revelations that will charm, jar, and ignite the readers' imagination. The "Quotes" section in the front of this book will invite you into this brilliant and inspiring second edition that contains revisions, expansions, dozens of new works, and The Journey of One, Den's epic masterpiece of a soul searching for God.
