I love Mary Oliver. This is just one great example of how wonderful it is to live in the age of the internet.

We can listen to so many fine writers.

Unfortunately, she passed away in 2019, but she left us with a huge body of work, as well as quite a few recordings of her readings.

She’s one of my favorite poets.
