Write a poem shorter than its title:

Under the Oldest (by Repute planted in 1772)
Peppertree in California, at Mission San Luis Rey,
Oceanside.

Ancient tree's green fronds
brush my uplifted old face;
green tree says, "You're young!"
Ursula T. Gibson, 1998

"A wretched soul, bruised with adversity, We bid be quiet when we hear it cry; But were we burdened with like weight of pain, As much or more we should ourselves complain."

~ William Shakespeare
