Escape from the Highlands James Sapsard 1st edition

Escape From The Highlands : Poems Of Love And Passion. The title is allegorical. Sometimes we have to break away from the places in which we were conditioned to believe we would find solace, passion and love; too often places that were unattainable without the surrender of our personal freedom and our identity. If we do choose to pursue such places, we discover the myth, trapped and lonely amidst status symbols, cold comfort and relative wealth in the house on the hill, while the single, fleeting, loving kiss of a lifetime may be waiting still, down the road, under an orange streetlamp, in the snow covered street in which we once lived. If one is a romantic, it?s never too late to swap the tennis court for the divorce court and succumb to the arms of one?s true and only love if only for that single moment of life?s utter fulfilment.
