Heaven--Haven A Nun Takes The Veil

Title:     Heaven--Haven A Nun Takes The Veil
Author: Gerard Manley Hopkins [More Titles by Hopkins]

I HAVE desired to go
Where springs not fail,
To fields where flies no sharp and sided hail
And a few lilies blow.

And I have asked to be
Where no storms come,
Where the green swell is in the havens dumb,
And out of the swing of the sea.

[The end]
Gerard Manley Hopkins's poem: Heaven--Haven A Nun Takes The Veil
