"Maybe the desire to make
something beautiful is the
piece of God that is inside
each of us." ~Mary Oliver
I so enjoy Mary Oliver's
work. She reminds me the
grandeur of Mother Nature
outbids, outdoes, outshines
each and every other sorrow
of this world.
And yes, even winter and
her freezing snows are by
far more glorious than all
the nasties this world has
to offer.
So today, when I venture
forth 'mongst these piles
of snow, I will hold Mary
Oliver close to my heart.
she sings of mother
and her nature to behold
bless her memory

Mary Jane Oliver, American
poet who won the National
Book Award and Pulitzer Prize.
Her work is inspired by nature
stemming from her lifelong
passion for solitary walks in
the wild. 1935 - 2019
