My friends on Facebook have asked me why I always post so many tree pictures. I use a tree for my profile there too. This is what I wrote.
I love trees because when I was little my dad often took me with him to do our friends and family's yards. He would put me in a play pen under the trees even until I was about four or five years old. He gave me toys and books but I spent most of my time laying on my back staring up through the tree limbs daydreaming.

What would it be like if we didn't have any trees? God knew what he was doing when he made them. This is one of my favorite bible verses about trees - Psalm 1:3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers

Tress are beautiful and useful miracles that God gave us. 
Now you know why I love trees so much.

A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may...
