I have just found your blog and absolutely adore it! thank you so much for everything you're doing <3 i was wondering if you had any poems about connecting with nature?

hi and thank YOU for reading & supporting my blog! here are previous compilations i’ve made on nature. here are some more poems for you to enjoy. admittedly they’re mostly Mary Oliver, but i feel like few poets capture nature like she does.

Mary Oliver, “Invitation” | it is a serious thing / just to be alive / on this fresh morning / in the broken world.

Mary Oliver, “How I Go to the Woods” | I can sit / on the top of a dune as motionless as an uprise of weeds, / until the foxes run by unconcerned. I can hear the almost / unhearable sound of the roses singing.

Mary Oliver, “Sleeping in the Forest” | I thought the earth remembered me, / she took me back so tenderly

Mary Oliver, “October” | Look, I want to love this world / as though it’s the last chance I’m ever going to get / to be alive / and know it

Mary Oliver, “The Sun” | do you think there is anywhere, in any language, / a word billowing enough / for the pleasure / that fills you, / as the sun / reaches out

Louise Glück, “Vespers” | I planted the seeds, I watched the first shoots / like wings tearing the soil, and it was my heart / broken by the blight

Wendell Berry, “The Peace of Wild Things” | I come into the presence of still water. / And I feel above me the day-blind stars / waiting with their light

Mary Makofske, “Planting the Meadow” | No voice calls me to order / as I enter a dream of meadow, kneel / to earth and, moving east to west, second / the motion only of the sun

Margaret Gibson, “Riverkeeper” | To bloom must feel / like a river’s brightening at daybreak, / or a slow kiss, a throb in the elapse of time
