Welcome to Litsy!

#ARichLife Day 23: #Boots - still one of my fave Mary Oliver poems.

#ARichLife Day 20: #Blessings

This book of poems gathered in protest over Bush‘s war took me a long time to finish. It wasn‘t an easy read given how much worse things are now and how I could see how what he did lead us to where we are. But an excellent collection nonetheless.

Oh Shel…you always make me smile! And we sure do need more smiles these days. 😍👏🏻👏🏻

#HauntsAndHexes Day 15: #Darkness

This poem is one of the reasons that this book was often banned in the 90s. Sigh.

Read this book of poems with my daughter. She's said it was "Good" and that this is her favorite book! She thinks a lot of the poems are really silly-for example, plants talking to each other is funny.
I also read this a lot when I was a kid. Fun to revisit the poems with my daughter.

And on 9/3 no less! A fave. 🧡💜💛

Read this book of poems that I read as a kid to my 3 year old. Her only comment: "Good." We read it every night for a week, but she says she wouldn't recommend it to sometime else. Lol
Silly poems. Sometimes with weird a weird moral of the story for kids, but mostly just odd little poems.
