"I go down to the edge of the sea.
How everything shines in the morning light!
The cusp of the whelk,
the broken cupboard of the clam,
the opened, blue mussels,
moon snails, pale pink and barnacle scarred -
and nothing at all whole or shut, but tattered, split,
dropped by the gulls onto the gray rocks and all the moisture gone.
It's like a schoolhouse
of little words,
thousands of words.
First you figure out what each one means by itself,
the jingle, the periwinkle, the scallop full of moonlight.

Then you begin, slowly, to read the whole story..."
-Breakage by Mary Oliver

This morning I thought of you when I walked to the sea.... Mary Oliver, thank you for your appreciation, gratitude and awareness of the natural world. Your words will continue to live in us and inspire us for years to come. So much gratitude for leaving such a beautiful mark in this wild world. 🙏🏼
