Then there is Ogden Nash, in response to the billboards lining so many roads these days...
I think that I shall never see A billboard lovely as a tree. Perhaps, unless the billboards fall, I'll never see a tree at all. ~Ogden Nash, "Song of the Open Road," 1933 Novels by Max and/or Ariana Overton http://www.maxoverton.com The Lion of Scythia Trilogy (Lion of Scythia, The Golden King, Funeral in Babylon) - EPPIE winners 2005 and 2006; The Glass House Trilogy (Glass House, A Glass Darkly, Looking Glass) - Eppie finalists; A Cry of Shadows, The Devil is in the Details, Trapdoor, Tapestry, Scarab - Akhenaten (Book 1 of the Amarnan Kings), Scarab - Smenkhkare (Book 2 of the Amarnan Kings), Scarab - Tutankhamen (Book 3 of the Amarnan Kings), Scarab - Ay (Book 4 of the Amarnan Kings), Rakshasa, Glass Continuum, Ascension Works in Progress: Djinn, Scarab - Horemheb (Book 5 of the Amarnan Kings), Sequestered Also check out http://julesphotographiccreations.blogspot.com/ Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2009 09:04:39 +0530 Subject: [indiantreepix:23196] Trees From: [email protected] To: [email protected] 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.Joyce Kilmer -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "indiantreepix" group.
