Despite the urging of family and friends, he has, until now, resisted publication because he has felt that he could not compare with the masters of English poetry. Age, however, has taught him that perfection is a goal to which one aspires but few, if any, ever reach. He is no longer wary of the judgment of others but content to know that family and friends appreciate his poems.
Mr. Mirabel is Phi Beta Kappa and a magna cum laude graduate. Retired since the beginning of this century, he has been an advertising copywriter, a public relations representative, and a management consultant. His favorite sport is swimming; his favorite hobby is crossword puzzles (solving, not creating, them). On October 17, 2011, he and his wife (the inspiration for his love poems) celebrated their fifty-eight years of marriage. He has three grown children and eight grandchildren and lives in Long Island, New York.ver menos
