If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
"Your journey will start,
When you begin to follow your heart,
When you believe in what you can do,
When you find that dream inside of you." -- Elizabeth Wrobel
