Gerard Manley Hopkins

Gerard Manley Hopkins uses a lot of time focusing on the love of God and the importance of his presence in this world. In Pied Beauty, he talks about the beauty of the nature of God and all that he creates. Then we read The Kingishers Catch Fire, and this poem talks about how beautiful we are in God's eyes. Next, we read Carrion Comfort, which tells us how Hopkins was ready to give up on his life, but decided that God will bring him through. So, he decides not to give up, and puts his faith in God. Basically throughout all of his poems he completely focuses all his time and energy on making the readers realize how important God is in our lives.
