Konstanty Mikiewicz (1911–1935) is a figure who deserves to be remembered. His poetry, published in prestigious journals such as „Pion”, „Skamander” and „Wiadomości Literackie”, is characterized by an extraordinary sensitivity to the beauty of nature. In his poems, we find both idyllic images and deep reflections on life, which is not always easy and pleasant. Mikiewicz managed to subtly combine fantastic elements with reality, creating a unique atmosphere.

His poems are an invitation to the world of imagination, where nature becomes a source of inspiration and solace. We find in them echoes of Arcadian landscapes, but also the awareness that life is not only joy and happiness, but also toil and suffering. Mikiewicz does not avoid difficult topics, but he can write about them with a lightness and subtlety that touches the hearts of readers. His tragic death interrupted a promising career, but his work has survived and is a valuable testimony of the era.

In the volume „Collected Poems” we find a comprehensive cross-section of Mikiewicz's work. From early, youthful poems to mature works in which the poet fully developed his talent. Each poem is a separate story, told with extraordinary sensitivity and attention to detail. Mikiewicz managed to express deep emotions and thoughts in simple words that touch the hearts of readers to this day.

The question remains, how would Konstanty Mikiewicz's work have developed if he had not died so early? How would the turbulent history of the 20th century have influenced it? We will never know, but we can enjoy what he left behind – beautiful poems that still inspire and move.
