I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree

I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree

Check out this awesome tree!  I recently sold a townhome in Rockville, Maryland that overlooks this gigantic tree and I found it most fascinating.  It reminds me of the Joyce Kilmer poem I learned as a child, TREES.

CAN YOU IDENTIFY WHERE THIS TREE IS LOCATED??

 

TREES

By Joyce Kilmer 1886 - 1918

 

I THINK that 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 fools like me,

But only God can make a tree.
