This volume is the second collection of poems about love by writers connected in some way with the Collegiate Church of St Endellion in North Cornwall. The pieces included here come from writers who are published poets, some of them prize-winning poets, as well as from amateur poets. They range widely over the theme of love, including love of nature, love for partners, present and lost, and-in a landscape full of churches named after Cornish saints- love of God. At a time of climate crisis when human beings are bent on destroying their environment, it is significant that many of the poets cannot separate their love for another person from their empathy with the whole natural world.
