In 'New Beginnings' Victoria Day-Joel chronicles some of the more important recent events in her life in verse. From finally meeting her 'man of the earth, mind of the universe' to looking for her 'home in the sun.....my new beginning' the poems describe the development of her relationship and the processes in her decision to move abroad in intimate and relatable detail. Each individual poem is followed by an eloquent explanation of the circumstances that gave rise to it. I really enjoyed the honesty and beauty of these verses and their imagery and I think readers will be left hoping that she successfully makes the move to Spain in the search for her spiritual home.
New Beginnings is a collection of poetry and verses, describing nature, new relationships and a move to Spain. The poems describe how people meet and how relationships grow; how love between two people works. It also discusses how life decisions are made - whether they’re the right ones or wrong ones. The verses discuss ‘love at first sight’ or at least how people can feel comfortable in each other’s company from an early stage after meeting. Each poem is accompanied by a verse which gives a commentary of the narrators relationships and opinions of the world around them.
