poem " Tree" I memorized in school by Joyce Kilmer

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 breath



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.
