Trees by Joyce Kilmer


 This card is made for a Guest Designer spot with The Outlawz Sunday Songs &  Rhymes.  The sponsor for this challenge is Wink Wink Ink.  I merged the tree image with the girl and robin.  Both images are from the sponsor.  I used Polychromos pencils and Copics to color the images.   The paper is from Stampin' Up.  Here is the poem we are supposed to use for inspiration.

         Trees

By Joyce Kilmer
 
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
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.
