This is a photograph that I made back in the 1980's
 at Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, which protects
 one of the last stands of virgin forest in the
 Eastern United States.

Joyce Kilmer wrote a famous poem called "Trees",
which begins with the familiar lines...

"I think that I shall never see
a poem lovely as a tree... "

    That poem was put to music and I loved playing it on the piano. When I lived in twelve acres of woods in Indiana, my neighbors said I was the only person they ever knew who planted more trees in the woods.
