    a day in the forest

    By DGH | July 5, 2007

    Pictures taken in one of our forest trip in Czech Rep.

    I LOVE TREES! I love looking at their intertwined branches, the rough texture of their trunks and the colorful hues of their leaves. It’s a beautiful architecture of nature!

    The poet Joyce Kilmer has written a beautiful poem about trees.


    TREES

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

    A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
    Against the earth’s sweet 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.
