It has been said that the world is always new to those who can see themselves in a new light. This creative and varied collection of poetry takes us along on a journey of introspection and self-discovery.

It has been said that the world is always new to those who can see themselves in a new light. This creative and varied collection of poetry takes us along on a journey of introspection and self-discovery. As we read through these poems, the feelings they communicate are both intense and subtle. The author does not shrink from feelings of despair, but nor is he consumed by them. He finds consolation in the knowledge that memories endure even as new horizons beckon us away from them. Happiness is here too: the joy of romance, of playing with one's child, of discovering the wonders of nature, of vacations and even of the simple, everyday act of cooking an evening meal. William Wordsworth once described poetry as the spontaneous outflow of powerful emotion recollected in times of tranquility. This collection is surely a testament to that notion. Most importantly, however, this poetry is genuine. It is a cri de coeur in its passionate honesty to embrace that which is most difficult. It is a celebration of the view from above after having mastered a difficult struggle. It is a retrospective look at life and all that it has to offer. And ultimately, we find here, in the end, an acceptance of that life despite all its many flaws and imperfections. There is much enjoyment to be had here in reading and rereading this excellent collection of poems.

Autorenporträt
Tomas Vietorisz grew up in a cramped three-bedroom apartment in the heart of Greenwich Village, NY, with his two younger brothers and live-in nanny. His parents, both first generation immigrants, came to the US as young adults and met at the United Nations where they both worked-his mother having immigrated from pre-Castro Cuba and his father from pre-Soviet-controlled Hungary. He left the city at the age of eighteen to attend college at Cornell University only to return four years later to attend medical school at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. He has been practicing community-based internal medicine and rheumatology for over twenty-five years in Stamford, CT. He currently lives in New Canaan, CT, with his wife, teenage daughter, and his delightfully obese (indoor) cat.
