Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?
Mary Oliver
Happy 79th birthday, Mary Oliver! The Pulitzer Prize-winning poet's daily walks in the woods and wetlands of Provincetown are a central inspiration for her work.
Many years ago, at a memorial service for a very dear friend, I heard Mary Oliver's poetry for the very first time. I simply "fell in love" with her work. Every time a new book of her work is published, I purchase it.
Happy Birthday Mary. Many more. And thank you for wonderful words over the years.
