    About this ebook

    Hoy, estoy más orgulloso y más asombrado de mi padre, Fortunato, un médico y cirujano sobresaliente; que salvó vidas de personas y tuvo el alcance universal de la poesía. Fue capaz de trasladar su mente científica a su realidad poética artística. Le pregunto al lector, ¿cómo puede ser esto posible? La respuesta está dentro de este libro. En los poemas de mi padre, usted, el lector, encontrará pistas de cómo ser capaz de tener esa apertura de pensamiento y ese alcance universal.
    / Today, I am prouder and more astonished at my father, Fortunato, who being an outstanding medical doctor and surgeon; who saved lives of people, was able to have the universal scope of poetry. He was able to shift his scientific mind to his artistic poetry reality. I ask the reader, how can this be possible? The answer lies within this book. In my father's poems you, the reader, will find clues on how to be able to have that openness of thought and that universal scope.
