by Mary Oliver
Mindful
Every day...Why I Wake Early<br />by Mary Oliver<br /><br />Mindful<br />Every day<br />I see or hear<br />something<br />that more or less<br />kills me<br />with delight,<br />that leaves me<br />like a needle<br />in the haystack<br />of light.<br />It was what I was born for -<br />to look, to listen,<br />to lose myself<br />inside this soft world -<br />to instruct myself<br />over and over<br />in joy,<br />and acclamation.<br />Nor am I talking<br />about the exceptional,<br />the fearful, the dreadful,<br />the very extravagant -<br />but of the ordinary,<br />the common, the very drab,<br />the daily presentations.<br />Oh, good scholar,<br />I say to myself,<br />how can you help<br />but grow wise<br />with such teachings<br />as these -<br />the untrimmable light<br />of the world,<br />the ocean's shine,<br />the prayers that are made<br />out of grass?<br />~ Mary Oliver ~JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345460167510665585noreply@blogger.com
