For thousands of years humans have variously worshipped trees, made
use of them, admired them, and destroyed them- and poets have long
chronicled the relationship. In this collection, Robert Frost's
"Birches," Marianne Moore's "The Camperdown Elm," Gerard Manley
Hopkins's "Binsey Poplars," and Zbigniew Herbert's "Sequoia" stand
tall beside Eugenio Montale's "The Lemon Trees," Yves Bonnefoy's
"The Apples," Bertolt Brecht's "The Plum Tree," D. H. Lawrence's
"The Almond Tree," and A. E. Housman's "Loveliest of Trees."
Whether showing their subjects being planted or felled, cherished
or lamented, towering in forests or ?owering in backyards, the
poems collected here pay lyrical tribute to these majestic beings
with whom we share the earth.
