Loves We Have Lost and Lessons We Have Learned

The love sonnets of Shall We Try Again? were inspired by life-coaching sessions with couples about to be married, where it became apparent to the author that a lack of communication skills could torpedo a relationship. This collection of poems is dedicated to relationships—the good, the bad, and the ugly. What happens after we fall in love? What are the pitfalls? Love and attraction do not happen in a vacuum—we all bring our baggage to the altar of the relationship. Shall We Try Again? is the voice of believing we can fix it, that love and togetherness can overcome personal turbulence. This is not a “how to” book for fixing relationships in trouble. It’s simply a small prism, a reflection of who we are.
