Whispers of Love is a collection of poems written as inspired by a personal relationship, real or imagined, let the reader decide. Love is all there is at the top of a list of very important things. If that is not true, take it away from every part of your life and see what you have left. Whispers of Love was written from the eyes of the heart, which has perfect vision, if not perfect logic. Emotions derived from the love of another are the most beautiful, even if the heart is broken in the process. No other emotion triumphs in that way. Without love, the worth of living would be greatly diminished. The writer hopes that readers will be renewed in their love for their special one in some small way or reminded of that time when their heart was stolen away and they were glador both.

A collection of poems that gives the reader an open window into the thoughts of men and the heart of mankind. Deeply spiritual and thought-provoking.

In this book, Mr. Bateman presents to the reader a very interesting and an eclectic selection of diverse types of poetry and themes.

The poems in this collection have been written over a span of several years, and reflect the poets responses to experiences and observations of a deep and personal nature; experiences which are sometimes real, sometimes imaginary. They not only explore the intensity of human emotions triggered by spontaneous moments of realization, they also trace the poets journey through different realms of exploration of the Self as her growth continues in different continents. The thoughts evoked give voice to the emotions of many who can relate to similar stirrings of the heart. Several of these poems were aired, in the early years, over the Voice of Kenya. Kitheka Mutui, producer of a program Books and Bookmen, talked about the echoing void expressed in much of the poetry, which demands of us a concerted re-discovery of ourselves and our purpose in life.
