The Wonderful Things
“We meet wonderful people, but lose them
in our busyness.
We’re, as the saying goes, all over the place.
Steadfastness, it seems,
is more about dogs than about us.
One of the reasons we love them so much.”
― Mary Oliver, Dog Songs: Poems
“Or maybe it’s about the wonderful things that may happen if you break the ropes that are holding you.”― Mary Oliver, Dog Songs
Summer slow, delight, play.
Come in, sit awhile.
Linger.
Steadfast.
Anchored.
Single-tasking.
Attention, awe, wonder in abundance.
At ease.
“Listen, whatever you see and love-
that’s where you are.”― Mary Oliver, Dog Songs: Poems
