Thursday Thought

"Maybe the desire to make something beautiful is the piece of God that is inside each of us."
Mary Oliver - "Franz Marc's Blue Horses" in Blue Horses*

I don't know how I decided to place Mary Oliver's latest poetry collection on hold - probably from the Publisher's Weekly review - but I'm so glad I did. I love the way so many of her poems connect to the natural world, mortality or art.
