Along the Broken Road - A Story of a Contemporary Relationship Told Through Verse and Personal Anecdotes

If we are lucky, someone will come into our lives around whom everything that is good can be defined. The challenge we face is how to draw strength from this person without crushing the relationship. This book is written about just such an individual, a truly exceptional lady. The poems in this book trace the progression of the author's relationship with this lady-from the giddy, to the heartfelt, to the hopeful, to being forsaken, to feeling heartbroken, to enduring bitterness, to finding the way ahead . . . along the broken road we all seem to travel in life. And into this tapestry of verse, the author carefully weaves the essence of nature and how it adds quality to all our experiences.This book also examines the concept of perfection in a relationship and provides a glimpse at how we can learn from our mistakes so that we can lead a more fulfilled life.
