Why I Wake Early: New Poems by Mary Oliver
5.0
Her work is soft contrast to anything blunt and frantic. Her little sharing of moments expands to edgelessness. Reading one poem at a time on my morning commute, this collection reminded me to breathe in subtlety, to appreciate the earlier and earlier sunrise as winter moves gently closer to spring. Mary Oliver's got a bit of the Sufi soul and its longing search for tremoring.
