"Trees" Sheet Music, 1922

"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."
-- Joyce Kilmer

I'm thinking that most of these recipes are still widely available out there, somewhere. However, if there's one I listed that interests you, just let me know and I'll be glad to post it for you.
