WELCOME TO My One Wild and Precious Life

I will not squander my one wild and precious life

I don't know exactly what a prayer is. 

I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down 

into the grass, how to kneel in the grass, 

how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields 

which is what I have been doing all day. 

Tell me, what else should I have done? 

Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon? 

Tell me, what is it you plan to do 

With your one wild and precious life? 


- excerpt from The Summer Day, by Mary Oliver
