Not a Limerick
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree
And if perhaps you need the proof,
Here is a tree upon a roof.
She waves her branches in the sky
And cares not if we do or die.
The rain is not a cause of grief;
She laps it up with every leaf.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
After (or "stolen from") Joyce Kilmer's Trees. For National Poetry Day.
