By Joyce Kilmer 
I think I shall never see, 
A poem lovely as a tree. 
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest, 
Against the earth’s sweet flowering 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 bosom snow has lain, 
Who intimately lives with rain. 
Poems are made by fools like me, 
But only God can make a tree.
