God’s Grandeur

Reading Gerard Manley Hopkin’s sonnet
God’s Grandeur
I take heart in the eternal freshness of nature

I have watched God’s grandeur rise from my own
feeling crushed
have trod and trod, yet my soul never spent

Now in my later years I have experienced
a ”dearest freshness of deep down things”
and to my delight— bright new wings!
