Crammed with heaven...

Wonderful quote from Elizabeth Barrett Browning used by Martin Percy at a conference yesterday:
Earth’s crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
But only those who see take off their shoes,
The rest sit around and pluck blackberries.
I used it today and someone thought I said:
Earth’s crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
But only those who see take off their shoes,
The rest sit around playing with their Blackberries.
