Excerpt from Love's Way and Other Poems And ye, O maples, at whose mossy feet My prayer was uttered, and my hope deferred, Hide it among your echoes, and repeat In balmy whispers every burning word! Besiege her heart With all your babbling leaves, Shriek down the midnight, in the gloaming sigh Till to my vacant eaves.

Alex Dimitrov’s third book, Love and Other Poems, is full of praise for the world we live in. Taking time as an overarching structure—specifically, the twelve months of the year—Dimitrov elevates the everyday, and speaks directly to the reader as if the poem were a phone call or a text message. From the personal to the cosmos, the moon to New York City, the speaker is convinced that love is “our best invention.” Dimitrov doesn’t resist joy, even in despair. These poems are curious about who we are as people and shamelessly interested in hope.

Excerpt from Love-Bound and Other Poems Poetry is, among other things, the universal expression of individual emotion. This gives verse its importance and its audacity. There is a sense in which each essay in verse challenges all the past, and enters the list with the great of all time. But there comes a season, both early and late, in all tongues, when verse is common to all. Once early, when speech is still fluid, in the days of the ballad, and once late, as in our own day, when the field of verse is once more open to all, because the seeds of rhyme have been sown in every soul.

Excerpt from Love's Way and Other Poems Proem Sweet is the hour; the hush of evening lies Upon the lovely vale; the river's plaint No answering sighs repeat, Save when a wandering zephyr faint Amid the tufted pines replies, Or when the humming-bird her supper sweet Seeks in the woodbine of my rustic porch. Already from the mountains there descends A cooler atmosphere, a hint of dew; Soon will the sun's far-flaming torch, That brands with such a sanguinary hue Yon fairy flock of clouds, be hid from sight; Now, ere sweet Mother Night Her wand of slumber waves, and every flower Bows its fair head, behold! my wingèd friends, The merry swallows, at their wonted hour, With cheerful cries their mazy games pursue. Ye twittering rompers, that from infancy I still have loved; ye chevy-chasing crew, In orange clad and blue, That prattle at your pretty play With such a winsome glee, A boon I beg of you.
