Excellent poem, Herb!
By the way, if I had a tower, I wouldn't just hug it but will try to

> I think that I shall never see
> A metal tower as lovely as a tree.

> A tree whose is high at least
> For antennas to break the pile up beast

> A tree that looks out for hams all day
> working DX for which they pray;
>
> A tree that may in summer wear
> Many wires in the air;
>
> Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
> Without reducing my antenna gain.

> Such poems are made by fools like me,
> But only hams know how to use a tree.
