Cerita 35 -Trees


I love this poem. It reminds me of my poem recitation in my class once upon a time. It is a simple poem but the first time reading it, it really touches my heart especially the last stanza of this poem. Yes, it's true, only God can make a tree..


I Think 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
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 fool like me                                                       
But only God can make a tree.
