4.0

I enjoyed this collection of poetry, particularly the poems that dealt with everyday life. "Give thanks," for example, expresses a mother's gratitude that her far-flung grown children are thriving.

"All of us -- fleet family -- your rooms in my heart."

Munro's poetry relies heavily on images from nature (specifically the coastal region of British Columbia); and an entire section of the book is inspired by the art of Mary Pratt.

Vivid and memorable.
