Background Information

 

 

Maria

"One of the many qualities I admire in Maria Cristina Azcona's work is her universal eclecticism. Not only is she a confirmed and sensitive poet - in both Spanish, her mother tongue, and English - and an imaginative fiction writer - She tackles reality and fantasy with the same ease and efficiency -, but she also excels in translating her own field of expertise - psychology - in words that everyone can understand, which is not always the case with scientists.

Talent and empathy are what defines her best."

ALBERT RUSSO

  Window to Heaven

 

 

She lives only for Peace
Its heart expresses the sufferings of the world Its body is always moving
With the service of our blue planet
 
Framboized breath
Aromatic breath
Harmonize intentions of waiting
 
Moon halation which stretches its veil
Shades and lights frays
For without slackening
To say the division and the love
Such is Maria.
