a very odd question

[a_t_rain]

Is anybody familiar with a musical setting of Gerard Manley Hopkins' "Spring and Fall, to a Young Child"? ("Margaret, are you grieving," etc.) Does one exist?

I found myself singing it while I was washing the dishes this evening, and I am trying to figure out whether I heard it somewhere, or whether I have officially become one of those people who goes around singing poems to tunes of their own invention. The latter would not surprise me at all.

If it makes you feel any better, I make up my own songs and then sing them. In another life, I'll write Broadway shows.
