19th-century poet Gerard Manley Hopkins was a man before his time, especially in regard to his literary work. His contemporaries and even his close friends called him odd. Manley even had serious doubts about whether he should spend time writing poetry, as he considered it a potential distraction from his work as a Jesuit priest.
His poem "God's Grandeur" is a sonnet that contemplates the beauty of creation. Though God's world is marred and stained, the Holy Ghost broods over it—sustaining it and reminding us of God's grandeur.
