Mary Oliver: What Would the World Be Like?

Our Shira 💗
What Would the World Be Like?

Because of the dog's joyfulness, our own is increased.
It is no small gift. It is not the least reason why 
we should honor as well as love the dog 
of our own life, and the dog down the street, 
and all the dogs not yet born. What would the 
world be like without music or rivers or 
the green and tender grass? What would 
this world be like without dogs?
 
— Mary Oliver
