  1. A Love Anthology selectedby: Cody B.

  2. Introduction The theme of this anthology is love. Love is an amazing thing which has the power to change people and the way they look at certain things. Personally, I chose love as me theme because it is the only think that has gotten me through all my problems recently. A few pieces of poetry that reflect on that are, “My Best Friend” by Tim McGraw and “When All Else Fails”, written by me. Other people find love within a hobby or a sport. I wrote the poems “Fishin’” and “Love for the Game” because many people love being outdoors are they love playing a certain sport. A lot of people love dogs, which is my motive for writing the poem “Puppies”. As a guy, I show an incredible amount of love to the women in my life, such as my mom and my girlfriend. The poem “What’s A Mother Worth” was a great poem that I found about love towards a mother.It definitely reflects how I feel about my mom.

  11. What's a Mother Worth?By: Unknown I humbly appraise my mother's worth,It began with pain to give me birth,Which triggered off a love so strong,Blossoming into a life-long bond. When needed, she was always there,Someone I realised would always care.And the older I got the more I knew,A mother's love sincere and true. Now as I watch Mum age in years,I'm happy to help and ease her fears.Privileged now to play my part,As she did for me from the very start.

Each time I see something beautiful I want to take it and bring it to you; My life has so much meaning now All because of you.
