an excerpt:
Mary
grew into a strong, radiant child
and she loved to sing and to dance.
Her squirrel friend watched her from a nearby tree.
her favorite thing was walking along the seashore
gathering shells, feathers, stones.
She loved to hear the wind, the gentle lapping of the water,
and the rustling of the nearby olive trees.
Mary found so much pleasure in listening.
