Lilies of Life

As a child in South Vietnam, poet Natasa To never dreamed that a home across the globe could inspire poetry within her. But after moving to the United States as a teenager, To was struck by the awe-inspiring changes each aspect of season that love ushered in, like all the aspects of love life. It was this awe that compelled To to honor the majesty of Virginia for lovers in the form of poetry. Inspired by many Vietnamese poets like Nguyen Du, Huy Can, and Xuan Dieu before her Natasa Tos poetry makes us fall in love with every passing autumn, winter, spring, and summer. Touching upon subjects like love, and the natural beauty all around us, the poems of Aspects of Love Life speak a universal language about love, and what it means to be love life of human being.
