Overtime, I have written poems about love and loving discovering there are so many ways to love and be loved. This chapbook is a compilation of some of those poems and new poems written just for this book. Included are thoughts of love present, past, celebrated, challenged, received and given. This book is meant to be read one poem at a time, maybe shared and contemplated, before going on to the next poem. My hope is that you will discover an emotional experience, perhaps currently familiar, remembered or imagined.
