Homework Help: english: poem

Posted by larry on Sunday, March 21, 2010 at 5:59pm.

can someone tell me what emotion is this poem is expressing? i read this over but couldn't figure out what this poem is expressing.

God's World

O world, I cannot hold thee close enough!
Thy winds, thy wide grey skies!
Thy mists that roll and rise!
Thy woods this autumn day, that ache and sag
And all but cry with colour! That gaunt crag
To crush! To lift the lean of that black bluff!
World, World, I cannot get thee close enough!

Long have I known a glory in it all,
But never knew I this;
Here such a passion is
As stretcheth me apart, -- Lord, I do fear
Thou'st made the world too beautiful this year;
My soul is all but out of me, -- let fall
No burning leaf; prithee, let no bird call.

please help and thank you

Awe and wonder are the emotions that I see.
