Trees

TreesBy Joyce Kilmer

(For Mrs. Henry Mills Alden)

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; - This is my second favorite line because i like how joyce made it 

                                                                                       seem as if the trees trunk was a mouth up against the earths    

A tree that looks at God all day,                        breast.

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; - This line just makes me chuckle when i read it along with another one 

Who intimately lives with rain.            earlier in the poem.

Poems are made by fools like me, - This is my absolute favorite line. the early parts of this poem could be 

But only God can make a tree.            written by a kid but the part, just makes the poem great

I like this poem because i have had the opportunity of using it in the past. But what i really like the poem, and the reason i picked it the first time i used it is because it talks about one of the earths most important qualities... "Trees". When i read this poem i feel all warm and excited on the inside. Without trees we may not be able to breath, and because i love life, i love trees. I also enjoy using it because when i recite it, it is very easy to remember.
