The Echo of Wildness – The Davo Show 012
from The Davo Show · host David Bourne
A Podcast Inspired by a Connection to the Wild Geese Call Recently in my backyard, I caught an old familiar sound of some wild Canada Geese flying by. I was inspired to reflect on what that sound meant to me and how we can become more aware of our connections to meaningful things. Later that day, I wrote a poem to explore the idea further. The Echo of Wildness – Poem That echo. Yes, I know it. Yes! Yes! Wild geese! Reaching, Reaching, Back, Deep. Into memory. Into association. Resonating Echoing Reminding Connecting sound to heart. Then to now. I stop, and listen. And reverberate. Then they fade; echo and memory. And I’m left humming in wonder. Wondering what am I doing with my wild and precious life? Further Inspiration The last line of that poem was inspired by the poem “The Summer Day” by one of my favorite poets, Mary Oliver. Mary Oliver’s poetry reminds us that connection with nature is a great source of inspiration and healing. “Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination…” -Mary Oliver Also Worth Your Time Mary Oliver Reads Her Beloved Poem “Wild Geese” at Brain Pickings You can find many of my poems here: Poems by David Bourne What’s This Podcast Series About? – Short-form experimental audio – Creativity, nature, and personal growth – Get it where you get your podcasts and at the bottom of the show notes page.
