A TREE SPEAKS TO TREES.
Live, live, live, our fields and woodlands need you; Live, live, live, our hopes and blessings speed you; Live, live, live, and may the fair gods leave you. Love, love, love the winds and the storms that bend you; Love, love, love, and yield lest they should rend you; Love, love, love the sun and the rain that tend you. Grow, grow, grow, till never a tree shall shade you; Grow, grow, grow, till homage proud is paid you; Grow, grow, grow, and climb to Him Who made you. —PHYLLIS BOOKER.
