This is a love story, told in the ancient bard tradition - in poetry, with lush imagery and exquisite wordsmithing. While most books of poetry are collections of writings on many different and often unrelated subjects, "a single drop of honey" reads more like a novella. It chronicles an entire relationship from beginning to end. Marcia Martin writes of the longing for love , of the indescribable joy of meeting one's soulmate , of the most intense yet innocent passion one can feel , and ultimately of wrenching heartbreak . These are just a few of the 63 poems that weave the tapestry of this tale. This book will leave you extraordinarily moved, and breathless at the roller coaster ride that defines those great love affairs that are doomed to implode under the sheer weight of their own rapture.
