Second Sight - Paperback

by Daryl Hafter (Author)

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.
