I hadn't heard of Mary Olive...I love this poem! I hadn't heard of Mary Oliver before but I shall look out for more by her. I love the description of growth, especially in the fourth verse...the 'green gowns lofting up in the night' and then the 'tick of the leaves'. It has a very tactile, all-senses-aware feel and it really reminds me of how I used to feel looking out over the fields by my parents house in the evenings (back when I was a girl).<br />Thanks for sharing this! :)Ann Mackayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11351182320553751958noreply@blogger.com
