Pear-tree. <br /> <br />By woodman’s edge I faint and fail; <br />By craftsman’s edge I tell the tale. <br /> <br />Chestnut-tree. <br /> <br />High in the wood, high o’er the hall, <br />Aloft I rise when low I fall. <br /> <br />Oak-tree. <br /> <br />Unmoved I stand what wind may blow. <br />Swift, swift before the wind I go.<br /><br />William Morris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-forest-17/
