A young lady name Tiffany Jackson, done a book-review on the book, and this is what she had to say. A BOOK OF POEMS FOR WOMEN AND THE MEN WHO LOVE THEM Reviewed By Tiffany JacksonFor all my ladies, who may not believe that they are flowers even the most chaotic garden, A Book of Poems For Women and the Men Who Love Them is definitely the book for you by author, Gerald G. Shed. And, for the men who may have forgotten what is a woman's worth, this is also for you. With every poem, Gerald leads his readers into a journey of self-respect, love, determination and the exquisiteness of God's creation, women.Before reading the poems Gerald, lists some of his inspirations which includes his family, people like Oprah Winfrey, Steve Harvey, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Dr. Frederick Haynes, T.D. Jakes, L.L. Cool J, Maya Angelou and a host of other celebrities. The poems are dedicated to every woman and girl, his mother, grandmothers, sisters and stepmother. Gerald describes women as possessing power and beauty, strength and love. He says, "Women are a companion and an inspiration and pillow to man. They are the rock and foundations of every home. They are the gateways and vehicles of life it self, making them the gateways between Heaven and Earth..." Each poem has meaning, significance and an uplifting message. It shows that Gerald really thought out each poem.Enjoy poems like A Beautiful Thing, A Mother's Cry, A Praying Mother, Hail to the Queen, Life, Education, The Perfect Woman, The Woman The Backbone of Man and The Gateways Between Heaven and Earth. The list goes on and on. Every poem in this book is sensational. It teaches men how to love a woman, how to appreciate all of her roles. It also teaches women to demand respect but in the process of demanding respect the poems teach women how to understand that they first must love whom they are inside and how to treat their man. Many books show women as powerless or as creations unequal to man but Gerald reveals something totally different in his poems like Man and Woman, More than a Friend, The Foundations of the World, The Greatest, Think Like a Queen, What a Woman Deserve and You're Worth It among others.This book will leave you breathless. After reading it, you will never feel less than a woman again. Both women and men should read this book. We all need to understand our greatness. Gerald says, "My hope is that as men, we will become to know and understand women better and that women will also understand themselves better."I was excited to receive this great report, and I am excited for you all to read the book.
