Day 965: White Heron

 
Need a moment of calm today? Can't catch your breath? Feeling overwhelmed?  Read this poem. Let it wash over you as a balm, take you back to what really matters.
 
 
 
Poem of The One World - Mary Oliver
 
This morning
the beautiful white heron
was floating along above the water

and then into the sky of this
the one world
we all belong to

where everything
sooner or later
is a part of everything else

which thought made me feel
for a little while
quite beautiful myself.
