Background
Information
At a very young age, I was attracted to poetry. My older brother, by repeating fragments of french poems when preparing for his baccalaureate, was my primary source of inspiration.
Listening to: “The Lake” by Lamatine, “Oceano Nox” by Hugo, “Sorrow” by Musset and many more, is like having a feeling of what eternity is. I had the opportunity to attend Les Humanites College where under the influence of poets/novelists: Frank Etienne, Rene Philoctete, Michel Saint Martin, I was soaked in a well of poetry.
In the Fall of 1978, I enter medical school at the Autonomous University of Guadalajara. Not long after, I met the love of my life, Leticia. In 1983 I married her. We have two wonderful daughters. Tragically in 1990 she passed away. A year later I completed my specialty in Obstetrics and Gynecology in a dependent hospital of The National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). Those circumstances marked the rebirth of what was sleeping in me: “Poetry”.
