"I am thinking the book is kind of repetitive. He does mention that the puritan tradition is to take one verse and write volumes about it, which it feels like is what he is doing here." — Jan 18, 2026 05:09PM

“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.”
