CATTLE, by LORI PETRI First Line: I learned how glowingly god shields Last Line: He pondered them upon his palm. | |||
I learned how glowingly God shields Even the creatures of the fields. When cloud dulled all the high hill land, Their pasture, hollow as a hand Against the sky, shone gold with sun. And there, remotely, one by one They clung, as though, in luminous calm, He pondered them upon His palm. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LUNAR COMPULSION by LORI PETRI AFFIRMATION by LOUIS UNTERMEYER HARRY PLOUGHMAN by GERARD MANLEY HOPKINS THE MAN CHRIST by THERESE (KARPER) LINDSEY TO MR.
