Book description
Leos, ever wondered what the Sun-signs tell you about love and
life?This unique anthology of poems for love and life relates directly
to your Sun-sign, Leo. If you were born between the 23rd of July and the
23rd of August, you will relate to many of the themes identified with
your sign s characteristics and personality traits. The poems in this
collection have been chosen because they reflect a Leo attitude to life.
They appeal to the interests  ruled by your sign; the animals,
flowers, trees, plants and places celebrated by the poets and associated
with the sign of Leo over three thousand years of traditional astrology.
Some have been chosen simply because we believe you will enjoy them, and
that they will awaken or re-awaken your love of poetry. Heralding from
England, Derek and Julia Parker were married at 25 years of age. Since
