Overview

The poems in Second Sight explore the world of nature as it speaks to us, enjoying, questioning, and complaining in our shared earthly home. We hear the moaning of a tree being cut down, and the ecstasy of wind-tossed Autumn branches. We learn to bear grief through the screen of mountain forests. But our lived experience goes beyond material things. My adult Bat Mitzvah opened questions. I had new ways of thinking about Creation and humanity. I wondered, Why do we have a flawed universe? What is our role in ""Tikun Olam""-repairing the world? These poems present glimpses into the rich and full life surrounding us all.
