On my way back from an out-of-town hearing, I saw this tree. I was reminded of that poem by Joyce Kilmer we memorized in grade school . But the words are not apt to describe this tree. I am pretty sure it is in a state of prayer with the state it is in. The tree is looking at God all day but has no "leafy arms to pray".
I'm glad you still remembered it chard. We were in grade five or grade six at the time, right. I could not recall. Thanks for dropping by.

He is Atty. Alan F. Siu - a thirty-something practicing lawyer based in Cebu City, Philippines. He also teaches at a local law school. His practice includes litigation, as well as corporate and tax consultancy. He likes to write. He just found out about blogging and decided to make it his welcome diversion. As much as possible, he veers from writing about Philippine politics (and politicians) which he looks down with utter disapprobation but ...on second thought - he might be tempted to scrawl up some lampoonery on the matter after all.

"When you are down and out, something always turns up—and it is usually the noses of your friends." - Orson Welles
Joyce Kilmer would have made a different version of the poem had he seen this barren tree. I think it was worth 10 pts. then, if you could memorize and recite it in class. You must have gotten 11 pts. to still remember it Lan,
. For most of us who has been oblivious, I thought posting it here would refresh everybody's memories. So, here it is:
Trees
by Joyce Kilmer
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.
Do I hear, "ahhh..mao diay na..kahinumdum nako"…:)
