The bee and the fleur de lis: love poems for the broken hearted and unrequited - Hardcover

by D. R. Kendel (Author)

Love is primal...and heartbreak? Inevitable.

the bee and the fleur de lis is a collection of deeply personal poetry born of hopeless romanticism and truly heartbreaking experiences. Through both free verse and rhyming poetry, D R Kendel plays with language to provoke curiosity and sentiments that tug at the readers' heartstrings. Her linguistic and punctuation choices contrast romanticism and harshness to capture the beauty love has to offer as well as the pain one must endure while loving in their lifetime.

References to the poets, songwriters, and artists who have inspired her can be found scattered throughout Kendel's work, and her word choices often reflect her love of botany and nature's charm. This collection has a broad appeal for readers who love beautiful, captivating poetry and who are interested in exploring love and relationships.
