The singular and cheerful life
of any flower
in anyone's garden
or any still unowned field--
if there are any--
catches me
by the heart,
by its color
by its obedience
to the holiest of laws:
be alive
until you are not.
From The Singular and Cheerful Life by Mary Oliver

The sun’s final bow.
Colours burst across the sea –
A grand, fleeting show.

Science describes accurately from outside,
poetry describes accurately from inside.
Science explicates,
poetry implicates.
Both celebrate what they describe.

let the driver merge,
let the cashier breathe,
let the stranger’s silence mean something
other than indifference.

so much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more

Genuinely think the poetry community is amazing. For the last few years I’ve been able to write and get my poetry published as well as publishing other poets. People can have so many different opinions but I often see such a kindness from other poets which keeps me going ❤️❤️❤️ #poetry
