Ramona: Tell me more about your book – Poetic Visions: Beyond Expressions (insert book description)

Gary Simmons: This is a rare and epic poem on the emotion of love and deep affection. In a world conflicted with heartbreaks, lies, cheating, jilting, and backstabbing, the poem goes a long way in healing unseen wounds and patching up sored invisible heart injuries.

This collection of poems serves as the best of its kind in recent times having achieved its purposes in quantum.
