They're poems about dogs. That's it. That's the review. I've been slowly making my way through Mary Oliver's body of work and while this collection isn't my absolute favorite, it's still special in its own way. I do think this would make a great gift for any dog lover in your life, but especially for someone who has lost a dog. Here are some standouts from the collection: •The Storm (Bear) •Luke •The Poetry Teacher •Ropes •Little Dog's Rhapsody in the Night • Percy Wakes Me via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/CCn-8JwA19W/
