About this listen

Mary Oliver has published fifteen volumes of poetry and five books of prose in the span of four decades, but she rarely performs her poetry in live readings. Now, with the arrival of At Blackwater Pond, Mary Oliver has given her audience what they've longed to hear: the poet's voice reading her own work. In this beautifully produced compact disc, Mary Oliver has recorded forty of her favorite poems, nearly spanning the length of her career, from Dream Work through her newest volume, New and Selected Poems, Volume Two.

I like Mary's poetry a lot and I appreciate and understand it more since learning a little about her life.
I do like the fact that she is reading these. it seems to mean more
I think you do need to listen in a suitable 'space' or it would be repetitive

beautiful and heart felt
