Love and Life

Poems About You and Me

De: Ziri Dafranchi

Narrado por: Matt Church

A beautiful collection of easily-relatable and heart-warming poems exploring the true meaning of love and life, and the relationship between the two. Get ready for a remarkable voyage.

Have you ever wondered what life would be like without love? Life is a priceless gift deliberately crafted and packaged for our enjoyment, but it is not a bed of roses. It is a mixture of the good, bad and ugly-including pains and gains, sadness and joy, despair and hope, failures and successes- and it ends in death. Death reminds us we must make the most of this gift before it expires. How can we do this? Love and life are inseparable, dependent and complementary; love powers life while life makes love visible. This beautiful relationship is broken when both are misused or abused, usually due to a flawed understanding of what each truly is. What is love and what is life?

Love And Life: Poems About You And Me is a beautiful collection of easily-relatable and heart-warming poems arranged into two thematic parts exploring love and life. The poems speak personally to you and take you on a voyage that could leave you questioning some of the things you thought you knew about love and life. In the end you would realise: "After all have been said and done, after life has been lived and spent and, when we finally bid the world goodbye, only one thing will matter...the love we shared." Ziri Dafranchi who has written some award-winning poetry, reveals why he is admired in local poetry communities as he deploys literary techniques in combination with his unique style in this well curated collection which is suitable for all listeners.

Awesome & exceptional book

I have listened to this over and over again
Exceptional! Solid 5 star!

I thoroughly enjoyed the collection of poems in this book. I found it difficult deciding what poems are my favourites. Both sets of poems, about love and life, were equally insightful and deeply thought-provoking. My concept of love has definitely been redefined and I also now better appreciate the importance of purpose in attaining fulfilment in life. I strongly recommend Love and Life to anyone seeking to have a better and deeper understanding of both love and life.

Love poems on audio

I received this audiobook in exchange for a fair review.

This is my second time writing this review so hopefully this one will stick. I appreciated the author taking the time to make an audiobook of his poetry as it is accessible to more people this way in some ways. This collection is about love, loss, and the nature of Love itself. It is a short read so it is easy to figure out if the narration and the content resonate with you. I wasn't sure if the narrator would really resonate with the actual voice of the author but it is good narration overall

“Without love everything else is tasteless”

This is a lovely sentiment from a beautiful collection of poems that offer gentle wisdom and direction to help mediate the way through life’s path. An expression of love choosing peace over just wanting to be right. Showing greater care for mankind while finding strength through self reflection. A soothing listen and a great benefit to all who experience it.

A touching, and endearing piece of work.

This book is a great keepsake gift for a special someone or on a special occasion. It is reflective, refreshing, and enlightens the spirit. The writing is excellent, and the message crafted in each piece comes across as heartfelt. My only wish was that the poems were grouped by "theme" and there was a brief 30-second intro to the section's theme.

Listen to these nuggets of wisdom!

So many poems stood out but some of my favorites were:

Fragrance of Love
Let it Be Known
Flame
Addicted
Thundering Silence
You are important

I will breathe is a poem for everyone! “I will simply breathe” is an affirmation that I am going to repeat each morning when speaking words of affirmation to myself.
