Barnes & Noble, When Deborah was five, she fed her four-year-old brother orange baby aspirin telling him it was candy. As he soundly 'slept' on the living room floor, Deborah and her grandmother watched television. Learn what happens when Deborah's mother returns home to find her young son immobile. Poetic Stories also tells how writing the story of a loved one's life, followed with a poem can bring complete full-fillment for all. In this moving collection of 40 true stories, Deborah Gilson invites readers into the most intimate corners of her life - moments shared with family, friends, and the quiet echoes of love that linger. Each story is followed by a deeply personal poem, written as a reflection, a gift, a thank-you, a healing and a remembrance. From unexpected laughter and everyday beauty to heartbreak, resilience, and grace, The Intention of My Affection captures the emotional truths we all live through - and sometimes struggle to say aloud. Whether you're a daughter, a friend, a parent, or someone searching for connection, these stories were written for you and for the people who live inside your heart.
