Here are two modern Duet Romance/Love Poets who give us poetry Romeo and Juliet would compose in their infinite love for one another. This book I believe to become timeless words memorializing love, passion, and the foreverness between two people destined to be together, and so happen to both be remarkable writers in their own right. Now here Gurjeet and Robert join forces composing their intertwining poetry expressing all those beautiful emotions. An enjoyment for anyone who has experienced love on this level ~ or wishes they were now. A once in a life time type of union that can only be described as a divine gift from heaven. I hope you enjoy this journey into their yearning hearts ~ the songs they play there, and its unforgettable mark it will leave in your own heart and soul.
~ Susan Joyner-Stumpf, Publisher. Fan. And most importantly, friend.
FOREWORD by RAW Diamond (“Noora)
My Pocahontas and John Rolfe in poetry are these two fine poets, collaborating love inks of endless sublime beauty.
I met Author Robert Bradley, fondly known as The Dude,’ when I first joined the poetry world last year, and with baby steps we became acquainted with each other’s work, and so the friendship blossomed. Author Gurjeet, Kour, I met a little later, and was immediately drawn to her flawless beauty that shines through, a wingless angel on earth, filled with love and the enrichment and empowerment of others through her activism.
And thus, in appearance in ink and personality these two exceptional poets are entwined in words like a woven rug of majestical familiarity when they collaborate. The Dude, with his eclectic approach, and the pure femininity of an angel in her classical emotive unique style compose music to the ears of love poetry.
For anyone who has experienced love, Rob and Gurjeet bleed passion with a rhythmical heartbeat, pulsating passion in flawless passion, desire, and longing. And yet, individually, their poetry travels amidst an array of topics. Uniquely different, and stylish, these are two beautiful souls whose versatility and acceptance of others is evident in their writing and their lives.
It is for these reasons that I am truly honored to be a friend of the beautiful Gurjeet and Rob, the Poet Pure.
In this magnificent 55 poetry collaboration, congratulations Rob and Gurgeet on this spectacular accomplishment. I wish you all the best with your future writing endeavors together and individually. May the doors of success, and the fulfilment of all your dreams always be open to you both.
~ Noora Salaam RAW Diamond
PREFACE by Robert R. Bradley, Jr., LCSW
In early December of 2021 I met a poet from India with a beautiful style of writing. I invited her to be a select member of my international poetry group and we struck up a friendship. We soon after began writing together and we have now produced our first book of poetry, fifty-five poems, “Melodies’ of yearning hearts.” A blending of Indian and American styles from classical prose to an eclectic blend of western cultured metaphors that have an unmistakable musical rhythm as well as spiritual poems. Poetry is both timeless and unique from Eastern and Western influences, but True Love needs no interpretation. I know the reader will feel this love, it can’t be measured in lines or pages; it is timeless and she is my Juliet, and you can call me Romeo, if you must. But we have many more poems and books left and when it’s all said and done… it will have a happy ending. Hope you enjoy our timeless love on full display.
~ Robert R. Bradley, Jr; LCSW
