RaveThe Poetry FoundationThis book, which so beautifully celebrates, no revels in, the poet\'s relationship to the earth, to his garden, to the people of his community, to family—I want to suggest in this national moment, it strikes me as breath ... But this gratitude, the thankfulness of this book, steeped in a grounded mindfulness, in a sincerity some might call grit, Gratitude feels like the first time you open the window in spring ... Nothing quite prepares you for the emotional spectrum of Gratitude. By the time I get to the pivotal poem called \'The Opening,\' I am ruined.
