West Wind: Poems and Prose Poems Paperback - 1998
by Mary Oliver
In this stunning collection of 40 poems, Mary Oliver writes of nature and love, of the way they transform over time, and of the way they remain constant. "Her poems do indeed make us 'shiver with praise.'"--"Booklist", starred review.
Summary
The New York Times has called Oliver's poems "thoroughly convincing - as genuine, moving, and implausible as the first caressing breeze of spring." In this stunning collection of forty poems she writes of nature and love, of the way they transform over time. And the way they remain constant. To quote Library Journal: "From the chaos of the world, her poems distill what it means to be human and what is worthwhile about life."
First line
Seven white butterflies delicate in a hurry look how they bang the pages of their wings as they fly
