Trees

I think that I shall never see

A poem lovely as a tree.

 

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest

Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast ;

 

A tree that may in summer wear

A nest of robins in her hair ;

 

Upon whose bosom snow has lain ;

Who intimately lives with rain.

 

Poems are made by fools like me,

But only God can make a tree.

 

                         Joyce Kilmer (1886)
