“I have come to think that the universe is like that and that each one has to find the exact space that corresponds to them.”
A slight ascetic breath, of subtle worldology, runs through the pages of this new book by Alejandro Guillermo Roemmers, composed mostly of deep and fascinating sonnets and free-form poems, whose wealth of lyrical resources reaches in many of them a remarkable interiority, founded on real words as living beings.
“ Alejandro Guillermo Roemmers transits in the space-time that he himself assumes, and he does so without vain grandiloquence or useless secrecy. His poetry -both in the requirement of the sonnet and in formal and conceptual freedom- takes the problem of essence and existence raised in the first work, and unfolds it in the perspectives of love, of poetry (looking for an elusive definition) , in music (“El piano”), in dreams, in nature and in different panoramas as intimate as they are compatible.
The depth and beauty of his poems is surprising in this book by Alejandro Guillermo Roemmers. His poetry reveals the moments of a life captured by an alert intuition and captured in images whose virtue is originality, if not the greatest, one of the important achievements of every artist. And this vital experience is expressed with unique lexical neatness and richness, in a metric that ranges from free verse to classic and modern sonnet, in which the background and the form harmonize to become a pure and true poetry.

The return of the Young Prince” is a book for all ages. It is a simple and poetic story in which I try to convey the experiences and wisdom that I have collected in life. I interpret life as a great opportunity, in which the most important thing is spiritual evolution. One wants to preserve innocence, but at the same time one wonders what to do in the face of injustice, evil, betrayal…
Testimonial poetry in the sense of lived experience, that of this book by Alejandro Guillermo Roemmers leads us through his experiences towards the purest and most diaphanous of communicative sensibility. To read “La mirada impar” is to discover the human and revealing breath of the poetic word, in this case an expression with classic roots and structure -in most of the compositions- but with a contemporary vision and an implicit and affectionate approach to the reader. In the verses of Alejandro Guillermo Roemmers the soul of the poet (his feeling, his wisdom) is always present in the face of the various circumstances of life: landscapes, anecdotes, sensations, the experiences of love and friendship and the perception of the sacred. A book, in short, that like all good poetry books, invites us to understand and love, helps us to live.
