Giraffe

A collection of fifteen poems, many of which are dedicated to (or inspired by) great literary figures and artists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

The cover bears the following poem:

Sticking his neck out to the fruit
No other animal could reach
this giraffe is like my love for you:
Only a lion could drag me down
and even he must know
the folly of pursuit.
