Jim / W1FMR

Joyce Kilmer. 1886–1918 
  
119. Trees 
  
I THINK that I shall never see   
A tower lovely as a tree.   
   
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest   
Againstmy antenna flowing west;   
   
A tree that looks at God all day,          5 
And liftsmy signal far away ;   
   
A tree that may in summer wear   
An inverted L within her hair;   
   
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;   
Who intimately lives with  my RF gain .   10 
   
Poems are made by fools like me,   
But only God can make a tree.
