#CharacterCharm Day 29: I have been reading more of the works of #Poet Mary Oliver now that I have quit social media (Facebook, X, Instagram) over the past months. Poetry seems infinitely better for the soul.

A short book of essays by the renowned poet, discussing her usual themes - nature, poetry, her creative process. She brings a poet's sensibility and love of language to her essays.

Sitting outside. I‘ve been cooped up inside all day so this is a lovely way to unwind

I finished this while waiting for the show I‘m at to start and it was wonderful. I loved absorbing Oliver‘s words, especially the essay about how none of us is cute.

I cannot say this enough times: I am really going to miss Mary Oliver.

I went to Strand today and picked up two Mary Oliver books that I haven‘t read yet for my three day weekend because I am going to miss her. ❤️

I chose to work at this table in the library, today, because this stack of books by Mary Oliver was here; and because Mary Oliver is one of my favorite poets.#favoritepoets #poetry #maryoliver
