plEASE write a personal response to the poem mary olivers '' a summer day''

Mary Oliver

Who made the world?

Who made the swan, and the black bear?

Who made the grasshopper?

This grasshopper, I mean-

the one who has flung herself out of the grass,

the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,

who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down-

who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.

Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.

Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.

I don’t know what a prayer is.

I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down

into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass,

how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,

which is what I have been doing all day.

Tell me, what else should I have done?

Doesn’t everything die at last, and too soon?

Tell me, what is it you plan to do

with your one wild and precious life? .. HERES AN EXAMPLE: As soon as I start to read Mary Oliver’s “A Summer Day,” I’m transported to a sunlit field. The details in the poem are so clear that I can see the grasshopper as it eats sugar in the speaker’s hand. At first I was confused. Why is the speaker asking about who made the swan and the grasshopper? It reminds me of William Blake’s “The Lamb.” But then as she talks about paying careful attention I see why she introduced these creatures. I love the idea of being “idle and blessed,” of taking time simply to appreciate the wonder of the world arou
