The earth is my new employer. My job now is to look for the signs of Spring. And no, I’m not going to tell you that it’s a tough job but somebody’s gotta do it. I’ve been asked just to notice and this is what I observed: here the green grass awake from its dormancy [...]

I was reading Mary Oliver poems last night from her book entitled “Evidence”. It’s been awhile since I’ve posted her poetry.
