did you know that paul robeson recorded this as a song?
you'll never regret listening to it.
analysis is unnecessary- it's all so self-explanatory.
in england -- look at an oak
in north america --look at the redwood
Every country has an example of its very own.
while looking , relax - then recite the poem and then ponder - you'll
find the Hand Of God.
Take It and enjoy the rest of your life.

Just going back in time thru my 1940's Prose & Poetry School book and
remembering how we had to memorize and then recite this beautiful poem. My
wife and I are both in our 80's and yet this poem still rings to us with
such grace. Doak Ramsey, Greeneville, TN

I first heard this poem in high school in New Brunswick, NJ, Kilmer's
hometown, in the early 60's. For some reason I always remembered the first
two lines and the last line! I had forgotten what beauty laid in between.

I was stunned by the beauty of this poem when I read it first time. This
certainly is, one of the most beautiful poems I have ever read.

So I was talking to my mom last night about this poetry project I have to
do for English... and my mom suggested I use one my my great, great
grandfather. At first I was sort of rude to her, having no idea that he
would be famous, and I told her that I would pass on the idea. After
telling me I was named after him, She told me to look Joyce Kilmer up on
google. Sure enough, I did. And sure, enough, I... Kimberly Joyce Devitt...
am the great great granddaughter of Joyce Kilmer. HOW COOL!
