SACRED TREE
OF THE
REDWOODS
This is their temple vaulted high
And here we pause with reverent eye
With silent tongue and awe-struck soul,
For here we sense life's proper goal
To be like these, straight, true and fine
To make our world, like theirs a shrine:
Sink down. Oh.traveler, on your knees,
God stands before you in these trees.
