The New York Times has called Oliver's poems “thoroughly convincing – as genuine, moving, and implausible as the first caressing breeze of spring.” In this stunning collection of forty poems she writes of nature and love, of the way they transform over time. And the way they remain constant. To quote Library Journal: “From the chaos of the world, her poems distill what it means to be human and what is worthwhile about life.”

Quotes

  • tyahas quoted4 years ago
    Listen, are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?

    While the soul, after all, is only a window,
    and the opening of the window no more difficult
    than the wakening from a little sleep.
  • tyahas quoted4 years ago
    Who can travel the miles who does not put one foot
    in front of the other, all attentive to what presents itself
    continually?
  • tyahas quoted4 years ago
    Well, there is time left—
    fields everywhere invite you into them.

    And who will care, who will chide you if you wander away
    from wherever you are, to look for your soul?
