'A Thousand Mornings' With Poet Mary Oliver 

A world treasure. Her work rewires my neural connections ❤️

How to love the World? That's easy. Poetry by Mary Oliver. Music by George Winston. Thank you both and thanks to NPR!

ahh i love mary oliver so much ❤️🥺 she said that dead poets were her best friends when she was young. just like those dead poets from her childhood, even though she has passed, her words, her voice, and the way she saw the world would always accompany the younger generation ☁️ mary oliver’s poems have accompanied me in my darkest times and though i’ve never met her in real life, she feels like a friend. this was the first time i’ve heard her voice and i actually teared up listening to this recording 🥺❤️🧚

RIP Mary Oliver. Love the way you thought and lived.

Observing the natural world is an organic way to slow down and greet the morning...

ending my night with these beautiful images of nature and filled with the questions of which she spoke in the poem " I happen to be standing" but also feeling peace listening to the interview ♥

You do not have to perceive beauty in the world to survive. What does that mean?

don't ask for the rhyme... the random labels for her... is for me (?).. sshhh.. let her admit it.. she's waiting still... :)

Hi

That poets lie is why Plato wanted to keep them out of his Republic.

Mary Oliver is no longer physically with us, but she is with me whenever I read her poetry book! What a beautiful gift she had given me!

I have just come across Mary Oliver. So sad she has passed away. What a beautiful person.

It's so refreshing to hear someone talking so honestly and plainly and beautifully about the craft of a poet thanks so much for sharing

This lady is truly a national treasure.

She has now taken her place amongst the other great poets ❤ Mary Oliver you are an inspiration to all

Instinctively we know the direction of prayer, its pilgrimage to the point of arrival, even the wren knows its creator, and the daily beginning in the mystery of its Creator.

Nature has the power of healing...

"The world did not have to be beautiful to work. But it is. What does that mean? "

RIP Mary... "where have your blue horses gone?"

Missing her perspective

Hi

It would be nice if she took the time to make her notes into poems. These are not poems- or at least not very good ones. They have no song or magic. In so far as they sound like all the rest of the dull prattle that is called poetry today.
