3.0 out of 5 stars Observances & Philosophical Insights From A Fine Poet., December 13, 1999

By A Customer

A series of poems from one of Mexico's best prose writers presented here showing his skill in the medium of verse.His best poems are the one's with intense lyrical touch; a highlight of grandeur & marvel at the poet's relationship with the creation of the word & the world around him. The best works lie in the shorter efforts.My rating for this is 3 & a half stars.
