thoughts upon a tree

Will I ever ever see
a poem leafy as a tree?
Roots so deep & trunk so knotty?
Information here is spotty.
Xylem! Phloem! Beetles roem!
Peckers peck (could these be critics?)
Moss is students incomprendo
Totality is muy stupendo!
One feature poem & tree DO share:
When burnt they heat and warm the lair
(but put CO2 in the sky up there).
