I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her leafy arms to pray,
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair
Upon whose blossom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems were made by fools like me
But only God can make a tree.
Poem by Joyce Kilmer
Trees by Mother Nature

The things you learn – like Joyce Kilmer is (or rather, was) a bloke – and his father invented Baby Powder…

Trees and lots of water. I’m not comfortable in places without them.

Hi! Wow, incredible photos, just like a vacation seeing them all together. Wonderful post.
