Passion, Connection, & Affection: Poems about Love and Relationships is about the joys of being alive and being in love. A lifetime of experiences and a celebration of the uniqueness of every person are reflected in this collection of poems. The poems tell the author's story authentically and honestly, but are in good taste.
Men have always been a source of fascination for the author, and the poems, based on a life rich in experiences, are inspired by the men she has loved. The first chapter is "Youthful Adventures." The remaining four chapters are inspired by individual men.
The author was married to her first husband, the "Adventurous Young Man from Virginia," for eighteen years before an amicable divorce. Her second husband, "Light of My Life," died after eighteen years together. She didn't date for the next twelve years, until after her children had grown up. Then she began dating online and met "Lover," with whom she had a brief, but memorable relationship. Soon after, at age sixty-five, she met her significant other, "Man of My Dreams," online. They have an astounding amount in common and have been together for two very happy years. These relationships are described in greater detail in the preface.
Although the author has experienced divorce and death of a spouse, as well as the ordinary challenges found in every relationship, this book is about the good times. Both men and women will relate to the relationships explored in the poems. Readers are likely to find something familiar, something that makes them say, "Yes, I've been there!"
