I THINK that I shall never see | |
A poem lovely as a tree. | |
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest | |
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast; | |
A tree that looks at God all day, | 5 |
And lifts her leafy arms to pray; | |
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. | 10 |
Poems are made by fools like me, | |
But only God can make a tree. --Joyce Kilmer |
I wonder what lives inside?
An Acorn Woodpecker?
Maybe an Owl?
It could be a Squirrel.
It's too far up for me to climb,
so I think I'll have to wait and see.
