A gift to the Human Race. Its contents will stimulate thoughts on every field of knowledge, but mainly on themes of ontological, sociologic; and anthropological nature.
Shortly after the publication of Petals of Love on Wings of Justice, I had the pleasure of discussing the book with other readers who found it stimulating and entertaining. We all agreed it is an important and valuable work of literary art. What I’m sharing here is my short (slightly-edited) review of it first posted on Goodreads:
A BRILLIANTLY INSPIRED AND INSPIRING POET: Ask just about any visitor to poet Carol Phelan Aebby’s poetry pages and they will tell you she is a wordsmith of exceptional talent and considerable creative intellectual depth. Her book, Petals of Love on Wings of Justice, is an instant type of 21st-century classic due to her marvelous gift for fusing unexpected metaphors with the twin themes identified in the title.
It is a particular honor for this reviewer that in one of her poems, titled "The Young Poet and the Painter" she pays tribute to the story behind the publication of Elemental: The Power of Illuminated Love. But in the exciting pages of this volume she accomplishes a great deal more than that.
With the kind of political, social, and military turmoil we find ourselves facing almost daily in the world, Phelan Aebby’s inspired verse is like a welcomed light of indispensable intelligence that keeps one’s soul company throughout the long dark hours of a frightfully freezing night.
