I read the poem " Trees" in my English literature textbook when I was in junior high. I came across it again when in Music lesson we sang a song the lyric of which is this poem. All the time, I thought the poem is the work of Henry Wordsworth Longfellow until a few days ago when I learned from the TV news that a library in New Brunswick , NJ, was dedicated to Kilmer, who is the author for this famous poem.

I am caring for my 94 year old grandmother, who has alzheimers dementia, and when she looks out my window at a lovely weeping pepper tree, she begins reciting parts of your poem. She wasn't able to recall of the words, so thru a search a found this lovely poem. It isn't much, but to her, it makes her day, everyday.
