Book V continues with seven stories, starting off with the oncoming spring in South Africa, as observed from the lounge, where abundant bird-life on a feeding tray in front of the main window has a paradisiacal background to the protagonist's secret love life. Life has changed for the poet, who has a lively exchange with his dedicated girlfriend. They enjoy writing love letters to each other. The stories revolve around the poet's spouse and his girlfriend, with who he cultivates ongoing high-level communication. Life has turned around. Physical expressions are enjoyed lively through the medium of virtual communication. With Aleta, the poet creates 'Azza Isle' - the virtual domain for their relationship, away from the daily humdrum in 'Fields of Desire'. Love play on an airplane in 'A Flight Back to Africa', is an exciting first for the poet. The lovers experience in'Inner Concorde of Opposites' that comparisons in love are just futile, as long as their libidos will work just fine. Book VI depicts 16 stories, with love seen from different angles and through strange coincidences, or are they? From love at a museum and another in the niche of an entrance to a Byzantine church, from self-pleasure to meet a sensual woman in a bookshop in Puerto de la Cruz. Love emerges between a couple searching for a pen, fallen out a library window in a modern suburb of Johannesburg, and the making of an erotic movie with Chelx, a talented designer and the poet's love interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While boarding an airplane from South Africa to Europe, the poet lives through a series of unusual magical experiences. Since his 'other half' has corresponded with him with E-mails, he senses an underlying urgency to meet again face-to-face. However, this urgency has been building up for many months of absence from their first meeting, but her calls strike a chord within his deeper inside when the bond of love calls for another physical togetherness. Even being through continents apart, her partner will respond immediately. This ballad depicts the emotions felt by the poet during his long flight to Athens. Although twin flames are unique in ESP, the poet has depicted his fears of a successful reunion on one hand, and on the other, the joys of holding his love in his arms again. How long will it be possible to nurture a genuine twin flame relationship that will be fulfilling for both? Could they both keep their physical desires aflame? Could their mental strength for continuation persist to carry on for another year or two? Right from the start of their unusual relationship they had agreed never to promise anything to each other. Will his effort in this 'flight for love and hope' come to fruition for them both?

Book excerpt: Love & Art, Volume Two, will continue with Songs of Passion and contain, following the theme of art in dialogue with lyric poetry, the 90 drawings plus one that have been composed together, some before the ballad's creation, some after it, as the total freedom of creativity has driven me. As we grew up with Storge, the love for our family, I have experienced during my life seven modes of love: Eros and Philos, which I have encountered most of the time, especially during my youth and the middle ages of maturity. Yet, the experience of the intensity of these modes of love came with my passion for the Fine Arts, when my teachers guided me along the road of tapping into the fount of ideas and fantasy, where the sources for my creativity lie. Compassionate love, I have only experienced when the tragedy of a terminated illness of a beloved Muse became apparent through her sparkling health of beauty vanishing as if an unseen force had turned down the dimmer switch of life and her suffering started with her physical disintegration. I felt pain and suffering with her and helped her the best I could to give selfless love and support. I have detected my notebooks with the right paper for writing and drawing with ink pens. A series of volumes exists in various notebooks. I endeavour to publish them in a sequence with my original creative activities to provide my readers with an inside view into those times of immense innermost conflicts, happiness, and pain accompanying love and inspire these artistic dialogues.
