Pied beauty - Bellezza multicolore
Glory be to God for the things varied -
the skies spotted spotted like a cow;
for roses dotted spots on the trout that swim;
chestnuts falling from the branches in coals lit, finches wings;
dappled landscapes and scores - tonnage, fallow and plowed land, and all
crafts, gadgets, gear and its structure. All
opposite things, original, small, strange;
all that is changing, animal prints (who knows how?)
the fast, the slow, sweet, sour; the beam, the dull
One that generated them, whose beauty does not change: Praise him
.
(Geral Manley Hopkins)
