Wonderful echoes of Manley Hopkins, “Glory be to God for dappled things.”

I love the line “Landscapes scoped, scraped, scrapped, routed, reborn.” This reminded me of the Hopkins line “Generations have trod, have trod, have trod” and following.

I had to look up the “hour nine”- when Christ died(!) Brilliant.

And the style of the picture had a minor key melody of recycled beauty. Thank you all!

I love this poem. I never thought about thanking God for lost things. It's beautiful.
