The Aching Heart is the eighth in a series of ten collections of poetry by Neil Stewart McLeod. There are experiences in life which strike such deep chords that the vibrations continue to reverberate almost endlessly. They might even reach the ranks of treasured memories stored away in some silver box, and every time we peer in the richness and painfulness are there as vivid as the day our hearts broke. Such are the memories recorded here, a litany of melancholy farewells. Dr. Rabbi Reuben wrote "Neil McLeod has a way with words. His "way" is to move people, to capture the essence of friends, family and others who have passed his way, to open his heart and allow his sweet, loving, caring soul to pour into every description, every sentence, every image, every moment he captures to carry us away and inspire visions of lives that touch us deeply and really matter. This collection of poems is a tribute to those lives and a gift to those of us who read his lyric images and feel a profound sense of truly knowing the truth about the people we meet through his imagery. I feel blessed to have these souls now as part of my own life as well."
