Like the late Mary Oliver, local poet Mary Junge believes that she was saved by poetry and by the beauty and comfort of nature. With winter approaching, as we continue to heal from the Winter of ICE, Junge will read nature poems from her books of poetry, from the anthology, “Lost Lake Folk Opera: United We Write, Winter of Ice,” and from other sources.  Her most recent book is “Creatures of Promise.” Earlier books include “Pilgrim Eye” and “Express Train.” Junge can be reached at [email protected].
