have you ever drawn a tree

Have you ever drawn a tree?
I am a cartoonist and a painter.
I have tried to draw them.
A tree is the most difficult thing in the world to draw.

Some artists say that perfect circles are impossible.
I think I have cranked some out.
They are not as hard to draw
As a tree.

A painter told me that horses are difficult to draw.
I can draw cartoon horses in my sleep.
All night long.
And unicorns.

But trees.
They give me the willies.
They are impossible to draw.
You would know this if you ever tried to draw one.
