"Needing one, I invented her – - -
the great-great-aunt dark as hickory
called Shining-Leaf, or Drifting-Cloud
or The-Beauty-of-the-Night.

"Dear aunt, I’d call into the leaves,
and she’d rise up, like an old log in a pool,
and whisper in a language only the two of us knew
the word that meant follow, . . ."

from "Aunt Leaf" by Mary Oliver

Join Caledonia and friends for more poems by choice and request, presented live in voice.
