Happy Saturday, my friends! It’s been a long time since I made a Saturday Tea post. I was going to take a picture of my Coffee today (yes, coffee instead of tea today), but the cup is clear, and it just didn’t look good in the picture. Today I am drinking a dark Starbucks blend with a scoop of ice cream in lieu of milk and sugar. Delicious!

To the left is a picture of Mary Oliver’s collection of poems Devotions. It is a compilation of many of her already-published works. You’ll notice over the next few days I’ll be sharing some of my favorites from this collection.

I had quite forgotten how lovely her works are. Mindful, yet cheerful. Reminiscent and charming. Before I started reading Mary Oliver, I was not fond of poetry. So, if you say poetry is not for you, look Mary Oliver up. I’ve shared several of her poems here. She is easy to read with no hidden meanings or deep interpretations. She merely shares her heart with the world. And her heart is full of trees, dogs, birds, and flowers.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you have a beautiful Saturday!
