The Poet's Perfume picks up where Mullaney's last book of poems, 'A Divine Appointment', left off. It is divided into four sections: 1: You & I - Linking Body and Mind 2: You & I & Spirit - Unfolding the Spirit of Man and Humanity 3: You & I & Love - Joining the Soul with Spirit through Love (Spiritual & Physical) 4: Food for Thought & Thought for Food - Contemplations & Reflections. This book explores the different aspects of love; love of life, love of beauty, love of nature, love for oneself, and a deep attraction one feels for another. The poems also probe topics of a starker nature such as suicide, death, and heartbreak. Ultimately, the impression or takeaway after reading this small book of poetic verse is a feeling of gratitude for that miraculous gift of life.

If you sit and spend some time with these poems, their words will find their way into your heart and you might notice that they will also refresh and enliven your own undying spirit.
