Have you ever been to a wild place and found it hard to describe what it feels like?
While scientists prove why and how things work, it is the poets that weave together the words to describe the indescribable and touch us.
Pulitzer Prize winner and one of America's most beloved poets, Mary Oliver, is one of the poets who come to mind when we think of nature poetry. All her poems directly connect to the natural environment and convey the simple and deep wisdom one finds in nature.
Her poem, Among The Trees, describes what it is like to be truly among the trees and tells us the profound discoveries and learning that can be made there.
Join me for our Nature FIX today at 2:30pm EDT. It will be a meaningful respite in your day to reflect on what trees can symbolically teach us and to let Mary Oliver's words take you among the trees.
