A tree, lovely or magnificent

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree...
Emily Dickinson

These lines came to mind as I was working under the big walnut tree that stands sentry by my gate. I'm not sure I would describe it as "lovely", which to me carries a sense of delicacy, of femininity. I rather see it as magnificent, a word which, to my mind, carries strength and majesty.

What do you think?
