birth: haiga of Elizabeth McFarland

Description

McFarland’s poetry takes us to the twilight hour and leaves us suspended between dream and reality, between past and future, between what-it-is and what-it-could-be. It lingers and lingers, sparkling and shimmering until it gently fades, leaving behind a whisper and a sprinkling of color. These poignant, personal, difficult images reveal the heart of relationship, the poet’s — and the viewer’s.

how far
till the mountains look blue?
waxing moon

                    mother & daughter —
                    the sea washes and washes
                    its fragment of glass

          two of us 
          with the same premonition —
          hunger moon
