Autumn’s chore “Under the spreading chestnut-tree” Said Longfellow to the ages. “I think that I shall never see” Has been added to the pages. ”A tree at my window, window tree,” Was spoken by Robert Frost. ”A dream tree, Polly's tree:” Said Sylvia, to her cost. ”She slept beneath a tree” is offered by Emily. ”About thee, as wild vines, about a tree,” Ms. Browning offers on a spree. Immortal bards these all are known In fact, there may be trees they’ve sown I say, my friend, their trees please take For none, I’ll bet, ever touched a rake!!

This was a delightful write...I loved the tie in to the trees using the classic poets...a clever and cute idea...Im a tree hugger so this is one Im glad I didnt miss...and your cadence made it treat to read aloud. Well done poet sir.  |

Sometimes the thought of a poem really does find a resonant strand of humor. Thanks to all who enjoyed this. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |
