Quiet Passions

About the Book

So many self-published books of poetry have undertones - about Life, self-realization and religion. All of which are essential in their own right. But this book is about passion, lust and that other elusive entity - Love. For without passion and lust, Love is not a ‘Many-Splendored Thing’ - it is simply a word. To think of it in terms we can all understand: Passion is the damnedest, most wonderful flavor that never hit Baskin-Robbins. Lust is the creamer Coffee-mate has been trying to formulate for decades. I hope to throw you, headlong, into the hearts and souls and beds of people just like yourself - like me - who only want to partake of Passion - if only for a moment in Time. So, wake up your ‘significant other’, tune in to the local Classical or Oldies Hour and read out loud what you may have been holding inside all these years. Go ahead, light the fire! Celebrate your passion and lust!

About the Author

Though previously published in the anthologies - POETS UNLEASHED and TRACES OF LOVE, Thomas still considers himself very fortunate to be called a poet. His life experiences are the source of his often complex and personal poetry. Yet, he feels these experiences are universal enough for anyone willing to explore. This is his first book.
