About the Book
When we connect with others, there are compelling reasons that lead us to believe the connections are 'real'- chemistry, eye contact, surges of energy and desire. It is these feelings, these questions, and the many emotions stirred throughout life that this author brings to life in this book.
Karen Phillips is a human development scholar that not only teaches others, but practices being a good friend, mother, and companion. She conveys her love for friends and family using words to paint a picture of their special place in her heart. She invites others to use and adapt these poems to their life and share them with their own loved ones.
What happens when the desire goes unanswered or the source for the energy are removed? What happens when things get mixed up and misconstrued? Do the connections fray? Is the electricity gone? Explore these thoughts through verse.
