ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Mary Oliver

Mary Oliver (1935 – 2019) was an American poet whose work reflects a deep communion with the natural world.
She was born and raised in Maple Hills Heights, a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio. He sought refuge from a difficult home in the nearby woods, where he built huts of sticks and grass and wrote poems.
Mary Oliver achieved critical acclaim and gained a wide readership, with her poetry winning several awards, including the Pulitzer.
Her poems focus on the tranquil occurrences of nature: diligent hummingbirds, herons, and inert ponds. Her creativity was stimulated by nature, and Mary Oliver, an avid walker, often sought inspiration on foot. Her poems are filled with images from her daily walks near home.
"A whole life is not long enough for the beauty of this world and the responsibilities of your life."
