Earth’s crammed with heaven, and every common bush afire with God: But only he who sees takes off his shoes.
From Exodus 3:4-5: “When the Lord saw that he had turned aside to see, God called to him out of the bush, ‘Moses, Moses!’ And he said, ‘Here I am.’ Then He said, ‘Come no closer! Remove the sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.'”
Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861) was an English poet of the Victorian era. Her published works earned popularity in both Great Britain and the United States.
