Poems of Gerard Manley Hopkins, who is ranked #176 on top 500 poets on date 28 October 2020, are truly nice gems treasured with time. With high vales and essence his philosophic and social poems dazzle. Just I have read his poem, 'Wedding March, ' and found immense pleasure. God's greatest grace has fallen on him.

I am trying to remember a poem by Hopkins that uses the metaphor of flowing water being forced to rise higher as it goes between two cliffs, i.e., difficulties producing character. Can anyone supply the name of this poem?

" what is name of poem that begins: " The World is charged with the grandeur of God....." It's " God's Grandeur" !

what is name of poem that begins: " The World is charged with the grandeur of God.....

very individual work

Poem Hunter present a fine selection of Hopkins' work but there are notable omissions: Harry Ploughman, and That Nature is a Heraclitean Fire

Good to be reading and reacquainting with GM again!

I just was watching an episode of The Waltons and John Boy read a poem to his mother, it was one of Gerard Manley Hopkin's poems.
