THE GREAT SAN DIEGO TREE
THE GREAT SAN DIEGO TREE IN BALBOA PARK MESMERIZES ME:
ITS EVERY LIMB, GREAT AND SMALL, STRETCHES OUT SO FAR AND FREE:
THE TREE IS ENORMOUS AND MAGNIFICENT IN SIZE:
CAN YOU IMAGINE SO MANY YEARS AGO, THIS GREAT TREE FROM A SEED BEGAN TO RISE:
THIS GREAT TREE HAS SEEN THE SUN RISE AND SET, FOR MANY A DAY AND YEAR:
PROUDLY, BRAVELY, FIRMLY IT STANDS WITH NO FEAR:
HOW CAN YOU NOT BE IN AWE, AND IMPRESSED:
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS MAGNIFICENT TREE, STILL STANDING AT ITS BEST:
THIS TREE HAS WITHSTOOD, MANY, MANY A STORM:
OVER ONE HUNDRED YEARS HAVE COME TO PASS, SINCE THIS GREAT TREE WAS BORN:
IN MY LIFE, I HAVE SEEN MANY A TREE;
BUT NONE BEFORE HAS BEEN THIS GREAT, TO TAKE MY BREATH AWAY, AND LEAVE AN IMPRESSION OF GREATNESS, TO IMPRESS ME:
