A FAVORITE POEM, YES ONE OF MANY..

 I have shared this before but I think it is worth repeating, especially now.  Just in case you didn't see it last time, here is a favorite of mine by Wendell Berry.  I thank Mr. Berry for his beautiful poem.

The Peace of Wild Things

~Wendel Berry~

When despair of the world grows in me

And I wake in the night at the least sound,

In fear of what may life and my children's lives may be,

I go lie down where the wood drake 

Rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.

I come into the  peace of wild things

Who do not tax their lives with forethought

Or grief.  I come into the presence of still water

And I feel above me the day-blind stars

Waiting with their light.  For a time

I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
