But
this morning,
climbing the familiar hills
in the familiar
fabric of dawn, I thought
of China,
and India
and Europe, and I thought
how the sun
blazes
for everyone just
so joyfully
as it rises
under the lashes
of my own eyes, and I thought
I am so many!

More than an art
Poetry is a practice
A way of the heart

For me it was important to be alone;
solitude was a prerequisite to being
openly and joyfully susceptible and
responsive to the world of leaves, light, birdsong, flowers, flowing water.

Look for verbs of muscle, adjectives of exactitude.

All summations have a beginning, all effect has a
story, all kindness begins with the sown seed.
Thought buds toward radiance. The gospel of
light is the crossroads of — indolence, or action.
Be ignited, or be gone.

- Mary Oliver

“What I have learned so far”

Meditation is old and honorable, so why should I
not sit, every morning of my life, on the hillside,
looking into the shining world? Because, properly
attended to, delight, as well as havoc, is suggestion.
Can one be passionate about the just, the
ideal, the sublime, and the holy, and yet commit
to no labor in its cause? I don’t think so.

Experiencing some wild synchronicity today.

2016: The Hotelier release a song which references author Mary Oliver and one of her poems.
2017: I post one of Oliver's poems on my old blog (unaware of her other works).
2023: Listening to the aforementioned song prompts me to search for more of Oliver's work, which leads me back to my old blog post.
