One of my favourite poets! I always tend to read Hopkins’ poems quite fast due to their bursting rhymes and intense emotions expressed, but I love hearing it slowed down so I can truly appreciate each line which has been so expertly crafted... Thank you💖
Poet Trance has just posted a new video. Deep Relaxation/Meditation Music combined with Gerard Manley Hopkins poems read gently aloud. Soft spoken poetry is great for relaxing or for your own creativity and inspiration. Listen with earphones for best effect. Some listeners might experience ASMR. Gerard Manley Hopkins wrote during the late Victorian period and was a Jesuit priest. He is similar to Emily Dickinson in that few of his poems were published during his lifetime. Like Dickinson, his poetry is very unique and not typically Victorian. A list of the poems (in order): God's Grandeur The Windhover Pied Beauty Spring and Fall As Kingfishers Catch Fire, Dragonflies Draw Flame No Worst, There is None. Pitched Past Pitch of Grief I Wake and Feel the Fell of Dark, Not Day My Own Heart Let Me Have Pity On That Nature is a Heraclitean Fire and of the Comfort of the Resurrection #poetry #gerardmanleyhopkins #hopkins #asmr #relaxationmusic #meditationmusic

No human in the English language eloquently expressed human pain like Hopkins, thank you so much for this.

Relaxation ? It's intensely irritating that the music is louder than the words because I CAN'T HEAR THE WORDS !
