Sermon: "Morning Poem: A Tribute to Mary Oliver"

"When it's over, I want to say: all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms." On January 17, the poet Mary Oliver died. Her ability to find wonder, reverence and peace in the individual encounter with the natural world has made her one of the most beloved poets among Unitarian Universalists. We will celebrate her legacy by reading and reflecting on her poetry.
