"To You With Love: Selected Poems . . . is. . . written in contemporary free verse and compiled as a moving tribute to the most intimate theme in the world. The free verse format is unique in how it provides for each page to take shape - literally - as the line construction is as fluid and artfully composed as the individual pieces themselves . . . . (written) with a lovely depth of emotion . . . . I . . . highly recommend this book." ★★★★★ Readers' Favorite, Review By Jamie Michele
" . . a collection of poems about love, passion, and companionship. This book is food for the soul. Gary has taken his inspiration from nature and described our innermost feelings with references to the seasons, wildlife and other natural phenomena. To You With Love: Selected Poems has avoided sentimentality and replaced it with stunning descriptions of blazing sunsets and translucent rain." ★★★★★ Readers' Favorite, Review By Tracy Young
"These carefully chosen selections mix images of natural surroundings with ideals of human feelings and thoughts. Burns . . . creates visual flashes - of a harvest moon, the leaves of autumn, the early morning light - that are tied to the fleeting, freeing and ultimately enduring qualities of . . . love. The free verse style offering at times an echo of mystery and of a spiritual linkage between the natural world and the realm of the heart. The effect is both calming and inspiring. Those already acquainted with the life force hovering in his words will be further fed by To You with Love, and the collection is a good place to start for new readers." ★★★★ from Self-Publishing Review
