beautiful shot and thanks for sharing the photo and poem excerpt. as an aside my grandfather was in the Rainbow Division (42nd Division) with Joyce Kilmer in WWI. I don't know if their paths ever crossed, but it makes the poet more real to me especially as this was one of my father's favorite poems to quote. A special memory with my dad was going to the Joyce Kilmer National Forest in North Carolina - http://www.blueridgeheritage.com/attractions-destinations/joyce-kilmer-memorial-forest.
@pinktornado39 Thanks Laura - that is really interesting stuff about Joyce Kilmer - it is great that you have such a strong connection. I didn't even know about the National Forest. I think it is going on my "list!" :)
