A review by poetryandsolitude
New and Selected Poems, Volume Two by Mary Oliver

5.0

I love love love this poetry collection, I’ve read almost all of it with the companionship of the smell of ripe apples <3 

My heart was pounding. I stood a while, listening to the small sounds of the woods and looking at the stars. After excitement we are so restful. When the thumb of fear lifts, we are so alive.
