  • Nothing Is Too Small Not to Be Wondered About by Mary Oliver

    The cricket doesn’t wonder
    if there’s a heaven
    or, if there is, if there’s room for him.
    
    It’s fall. Romance is over. Still, he sings.
    If he can, he enters a house
    through the tiniest crack under the door.
    Then the house grows colder.
    
    He sings slower and slower.
    Then, nothing.
    
    This must mean something, I don’t know what.
    But certainly it doesn’t mean
    he hasn’t been an excellent cricket
    all his life.
