Corazon de los Cielos, Corazon de la Tierra,
Corazon de las Aguas, Corazon de los Vientos
Bendicenos
Orange… pink… yellow… rojo… yosh!
Shinning circles of color cover the heavens competing with the sun
November is the windiest month in the Guatemalan mountains and the round barriletes
take off with extraordinary force,
Peleandose unos con otros por llegar mas rapido,
To reach the souls up above,
To remind the spirits to come down and party with us.
Teresa Ortiz: I am a native of Mexico and an immigrant to Minnesota; a writer, a mother and an educator. I consider myself a very spiritual person who is inspired by life, nature, the earth and the people I love. My poems are personal, descriptive, collective and political; they aim to describe our identity, the land where we live and the lives that have touched my own. I write in Spanish and in English because I want to honor the language of my ancestors and the languages of my children. I am a member of Palabristas Latin@ Spoken Word Collective.
