Birdsong

Today's haiku grouping is inspired by nature.  My photography, in turn, is inspired by haiku.

Days fly like birdsong in air.
One day here, and there.
Like a blanket of rose mist.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sun rises, and I breathe.
Light dances naked.
Moon says, "you are immortal."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The thought of sadness in spring
Takes my smile away.
Can the earth see me crying?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Without smell, no memory.
Could words describe lavender?
You were my garden.

Ana Martinez Orizondo

Ana Martinez Orizondo is a Cuban pastel artist, writer and culture creative living in Shelter Island, NY. Her work explores themes of ecology and spirituality as well as identity and culture through landscape, nature and portraiture. She is a fascinated by mystical liminal states of in-betweenness, portals to otherness, and amorphous forms. The textural play between soft and hard pastels on smooth or ragged, Indian paper adds to the push and pull of my creative process, and its alchemical power.

When we fail to express who we truly are, it's easy to feel powerless and alone. As an artist and culture creative, I strive to share personal expressions that put others into relationship with their own creative, expressive selves so that together, we can create a world of connection and meaning.
