No Walt Whitman, but...

I think that I shall never see,
A sight as beautiful as a tree.

But those men from out of town,
Chopped the whole darn forest down.

So I guess I’ll sit here on my rump,
And write a poem about a stump.


Don't know where that poem came from, I think perhaps I read it in Mad magazine when I was a kid and it stuck in my brain. Funny how somethings are so easily remembered, ay? Why couldn't I ever remember my Greek or Latin conjugations so easily?

Greek and Latin are tough things to remember!
