Book Review: A Spiritual Journey
Summary: 5 Stars
Mary Oliver dedicated "Thirst" to her partner, Molly Malone Cook, who died in 2005. She expresses in it her love for the world by paying attention to it. The messages are positive, dynamic and uplifting.
These verses reflect her soul's generosity:
"If you want to talk about this
come to visit. I live in the house
near the corner, which I have named
Gratitude."
Joyce Akesson, author of Love's Thrilling Dimensions and The Invitation
