Nature is Never Spent
(Found here) |
There lives the dearest freshness
in deep down things;
And though the last
lights off the
black West went
Oh, morning,
at the brown brink
eastward, springs . . .
Because the Holy Ghost
over the bent
world broods
with warm breast
and with ah!
bright wings.
~Gerard Manley Hopkins (from “God’s Grandeur”)
