  Poetry of the senses

  My love of poetry was always unrequited. As with all young boys, my English teachers forced me to memorize and recite unintelligible Shakespearean sonnets and turn bad blood into worse ink. For the next half-century, I never gave it a chance. 
  But at the age of 71, poetry came in search of me.  
  The theme of ‘senses’ made sense. As a physician and winemaker, I would try to turn exquisite impressions into exquisite expressions, solvents for the soul dipped in dyes of the heart.  
  There are 17 poems in this sense-ational collection, each with a different form, climbing higher on the sensory evolutionary ladder from the cranial nerves to the prefrontal cortex and beyond.  
  Writing them was like dropping a rose petal into an elevator shaft and waiting for the echo.  
  Read these short, jagged-edged lines as imaginary gardens of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of dictionary.

  A woman on the run meets a grumpy ex-havy recluse hated by everyone in town in this steamy small-town romance. 
  “My heart demands I be near this broken man. Maybe we can be broken together.” 
  Alex: 
  The only thing I’ve ever wanted was to be left alone in my secluded cabin, deep in the woods. I wear my scars as a badge of dishonor to ensure that people will stay away from me. And severe PTSD after years in the Navy just about seals the deal. 
  And this is how I like it: alone and quiet… 
  Until a beautiful trouble gets dumped on my doorstep. 
  Freya: 
  The only thing I want is to fix my car and get the hell away from Little Hope, where I got stuck thanks to a popped tire and ‘helpful’ locals. Unfortunately, fate - apparently - has other plans for me. 
  That’s how I find myself at Alex’s doorstep. A local ex-navy recluse, Alex is rude, obnoxious, and scorching as hell with his grumpiness and f-off attitude. 
  I just want to run from this little town and from this growly man people constantly warn me about. But why does he suddenly feel like home? 
  They say All Roads Lead to Maine. But do they end there? 
  This slow-burn, strangers-to-enemies-to-lovers, contemporary romance is a standalone filled with angst, battling the demons of the past, and finding peace. Each book contains a story about a different couple. No cheating. No cliffhangers. HEA.
