Devoted

Devoted is a collection of over sixty poems about the kind of love that gets chosen again every day - not just in the rush of falling, but in the ordinary moments that come after: doing the dishes so she can rest, holding hands on a walk, the small stool she refuses to give up even though he could reach the shelf for her.Don and Betty Weishap write love in its full range - the ache of being lost before you find the right person, the nerves of meeting her family for the first time, the quiet vow of a wedding day, and the steadiness of still choosing each other fourteen years in. There are poems for anniversaries, for Christmas mornings, for sleepless nights spent just watching someone breathe.This isn't a collection about romance as spectacle. It's about devotion as a daily practice - patient, unglamorous, and utterly real. Readers who want their love poems to sound like an actual marriage, not a fairy tale, will feel at home here.
