Stellar by Kevin Hollingsworth

We have all loved and lost. It is devastating. At that moment, one feels like they will never be whole again. One is only comforted by the thought that love will come knocking again. It is wonderfully strange that the hope for eternal love never quite fades. Even one is jaded and shredded, they still hope. 

Kevin Hollingsworth has penned poems about the loves he ha had and lost. He talks about his shortcomings and his parts in losing those loves. He awakens hope in a reader who may have lost. He rekindles a fire in someone ho has known love. He is pretty close to an actual cupid. He reminds the reader about beautiful challenging love. 

The point of these poems is to understand the quintessence o love and the human condition. Everyone wants and needs to be loved. Why is that? Why desire something that leaves gaping wounds when it is lost? Why go on ahead and accept love again despite still wielding vicious scars from the last encounter? 

The author’s vivid presentation and endearing writing is exquisitely moving and eye opening. It is thought provoking and annoyingly apt. This book is better than a whole playlist of blues. It is the ultimate weapon against a broken heart. Five stars for each and every piece. Even the one about America, very patriotic. The crafting is impeccable. Structure is sober and welcoming. Each poem knocks at its own notch. For simple book of rose poems, this is incredibly well done. Simply magnificent!
