TREES, by                    
First Line: There is so much beauty in a tree
Last Line: Oh, how grandly beautiful is a tree.
Subject(s): Trees


There is so much beauty in a tree.
Each trembling leaf is a joy
And comfort to mankind.
With a sigh of consolation we seek its shade
And inhale its balmy fragrance.
It reaches out, and reaches up
To the sun, the rain,
To the twinkling stars and heaven above.
With ever a kindly shelter in its regal majesty,
It throws outward and upward its boughs,
As though with hands outstretched in thankfulness
For the many blessings given to it,
And the joy they are enabled to give
To the flowers, the birds, and humankind.
Each tiny leaf and branch
Is perpetually waving us a welcome,
And to the glories of the earth and sky.
Oh, how grandly beautiful is a Tree.
