Invitation

Written By Anthony Yuen

This poem by Mary Oliver invites the reader to take a moment for “delight and gratitude," and reminds us that “It is a serious thing just to be alive.” She is right: so far we have made it through all that 2020 has delivered. It is indeed a serious—and amazing—thing.

Invitation has been removed from Our Break Room at the request of the Oliver’s estate.
