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.

TREE by Dark_Raven
I think I shall never see
A beast hidden in a blood sucking tree
A beast whose hungry mouth is in need
Against the earth's sweet flowing blood
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of human blood in her hair
Upon whose bosom snow has lain
Who intimately lives with blood
Poems are made by fools like me
But I can only suck the blood from the tree,
