Poet to My Soul

The poetry of Mary Oliver calibrates my compass; I repeatedly return to her.  In 2016, I created a series of "poem pics" from her work and used them in a restorative yoga series.  Many of them appear below.  The dog in some of the pics was my beloved companion; he left his body in 2017 and Mary left hers in 2019.
