Mr Thomas Charles Tiffany
Tom has a web site of his creations. Please visit - TomTankhCreations.com
Thomas Tiffany was raised and educated in Rochester, NY. Upstate NY provided many experiences from which Tom gleaned concepts for his poetry. His 33 year career in the field of computer systems development enlightened him to the subtle differences required to develop sound interpersonal relationships.
Moving to Colorado with his wife and two sons in 1967 broadened Tom’s appreciation of the beauty of nature and the need to respect it. Tom and his wife live in Golden.
Tom has written poetry for seven decades. It wasn’t until the birth of his granddaughter that he began reassessing his life and the various experiences that have molded the man he is today. This evolved into the writing of poetry that exemplified those experiences to enlighten his granddaughter of the many lessons that affect a person’s development without their even knowing what they are learning. Hence, the creation of "Life Doesn't Rhyme With Orange". A compilation of Tom's poetry and other writings with supporting photographs.
Over the years, Tom has learned that UNDERSTANDING is so much more important in one's life than just KNOWLEDGE. This resulted in his writing "My!Key Moments"; wherein, a youngster gains understanding to the 'Whys' in his life.
Tom's main motivation throughout life can be summarized in one word 'THRIVE'. In addition, Tom is enamored with the ancient Egyptian ankh - their symbol of life. How one lives their life determines satisfactory fulfillment.
