Poem About a Field Mouse

5/2/2014

0 Comments

 
I heard a poem read by Garrison Keillor on the  Writer's Almanac, April 26, 2014.... It is a gentle poem about a field mouse  by Pat Riviere-Seel. Here is the link...and there is a story about Frederick Law Olmsted, a pioneer in the field of landscape architecture...he felt learning from nature was invaluable... more so than  formal education which he had also done.  Read that story at the end of the Writer's Almanac posting.

How do you connect to the natural world and how does that inform your daily life?
