Both Love and Hate

Poetry dealing with all aspects of love and hate down through the ages.

Some of the greatest feelings down through the ages have come from both love and hate. This is what the poetry in BOTH LOVE AND HATE deals with, from a baby's first breath to the final reaching to our destination, from a girl's first kiss to the agony of despair in divorce and losing a soul mate, from a mother's unending love to a father's steady hand and directing of our every move through life, even when we think it is not right for us. It is, many times, near impossible to distinguish between love and hate, and much of the time we are just wrong.

Ron Arbuthnot comes from a long line of poets and writers, and the Celt bloodline driven out of Saxony by Caeser and his Roman soldiers to near Kincardinshire, Scotland, and then on to the areas of County Down in Ireland and Pennsylvania in later USA. The Arbuthnot clan is still widely known for poetry and music of the arts, and still a significant part of the area in and around Kincardinshire, Scotland.
