In 2013, Joseph D. Kemper set out to mirror the journey of a musician, and started to write a spiritually focused poem every day for 40 days. Halfway through that journey, in July 2013, he realized that he had written a love poem every day for his wife during that same period. Initially, he just thought he would continue to write a love poem for his wife Deanne, his Beautiful Angel Queen, every day for the rest of the 40 days along with his spiritually focused poems.
The spiritual poems stopped at 40 days. The reason Kemper made the commitment to write a minimum of one love poem every day for the rest of his life goes back to when he was fifteen. He had watched anger tear through his home for weeks, and committed to never letting that feeling rule his home when he would eventually get married.
Over the next 20 years before he met and married Deanne, he literally asked hundreds of happy-looking couples what their secret was, in hopes of trying to figure out even what a happy home looks like. He spent two decades working on himself, purging from his heart any tendency that led to the kind of anger he did not want to bring into his home. What he stumbled across by accident gave him the key to what he had been hunting to find, for two decades. Always remember they love you. That is the first secret that Kemper found to let him never feel anger. The second secret is to be humble enough to not care if everything goes your way.
Writing love poems every day for his wife lets Joseph D. Kemper always remember the love he and his Beautiful Angel Queen share. He shares those poems with the world in hopes of letting them know what is possible with love.
In Taking the Leap: Love Poems Volume 13, readers will find:
This book is more than a collection of poems. It is the story of a heart trained toward love, a marriage strengthened by daily intention, and a vow kept one poem at a time.
For anyone who believes in devotion, in healing, in choosing love again and again, Taking the Leap: Love Poems Volume 13 offers a year's worth of tenderness, hope, fun, silliness, and inspiration.
