Trees I am looking at the trees, they may be one of the things I willmiss most from the earth, though many of the ones that Ihave seen,already I cannot remember and though I seldom embrace the ones I see and have never been able to speakwith one, I listen to them tenderly, their names have nevertouched them, they have stood round my sleep and when it was forbidden to climb them they have carried me in their branches James Wright
