The Cocktail Napkin Love Poems

If you could write love poems on cocktail napkins, what would they be? For Janice Lynch Schuster, what was once a challenge became a habit. These short poems, written during the early months of the 2020 pandemic, describe love, comfort, and the longing to belong that so many people recognize as the desire to escape isolation and loneliness. Each short poem is just a few lines, yet each contains a world of mystery and hope, of love and desire, of belonging and connection that we so need today.
