樹を見るのが好きです。だから何処に行っても、ついつい樹の写真を撮ってしまいます。
そう友人に話したら、この詩を教えてくれました。

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.
作詞: ジョイス・キルマー Joyce Kilmer (1913, 詩作)
