About the Book

"My Journey from Warrior to Gypsy" is a collection of poems written by Tom Yeager. This book is his story of going into the unknown and discovering more of the world and of himself. He is able to laugh at how life " sometimes hands us chicken and sometimes hands us feathers." Tom captures the humor, warmth, and wisdom of a heart opening. *The chapter of poems on love and romance describes the pain and joy of being with someone special. These poems show how he has slowly learned to "open his heart and let love come in." He ends one of his poems with "when people ask what happened to me, I say that I am trusting life's greatest mystery." *The chapter of poems on riding and jumping horses shows his love and connection with horses. His poems reflect how much he has learned from riding these "magnificent creatures." One of his favorite quotes is from Winston Churchill who said, "No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle." *The chapter of poems on travel reflects his experiences and insights from traveling to over thirty countries in the world and seeing five of the seven wonders of the world. For example, he writes about facing the unknown in his climb to the summit of Mt. Fuji. With each adventure, he realizes the truth of Rumi who said, "Travel brings love and power back into your life." *The chapter of poems on facing adversity is about finding the inner strength to face our fears. Tom believes that adversity teaches us about patience, honesty, and courage. He ends one poem with the Vietnamese proverb "in the dark, one has only one's lamp to show the way."
About the Author: Tom began his journey riding and jumping horses when he was eleven and became a state champion and lifetime horse lover. Then realizing that he needed to learn more than just the horse world, he started writing poems at Occidental College as a way of learning to express himself. After college he lived in Kyoto Japan teaching English to children and businessmen. When he came back to the United States, he became a management consultant and business owner. Tom is now retired after selling the company and lives in California and Saigon. He spends his time riding horses, enjoying sushi, writing, and traveling the world.
