Very accessible and relatable poetry. A friend said she thinks Ada Limon is a worthy candidate to pick up the mantle left behind by Mary Oliver. We'll see after I read more by her, but I agree that she does write a lot about nature and I can understand her poems.

I love Ada Limón and while this wasn’t as OOF as Bright Dead Things or The Carrying on first read, I think I just need an Ada Limón collection to reread and re-annotate!!!

informative lighthearted reflective relaxing fast-paced

My goal is to read a book of poetry each month and I just did a Google search and this book came up and I was not disappointed.  Most of the poems are about nature and I really enjoyed them and understood them.  The book is a quick read.
