She also read the following poem - The Pine Tree. I am a pine tree tall and strong Over my branches all day long The blackbirds hop and the squirrels run And the chipmunks chatter and chirp in fun. I am a pine tree wide and green, Birds in my branches hide unseen, My cones are treasures of tempting seed In their winter garner the squirrels to feed. I am a pine tree white with snow Over my head the tempests blow, But warm and green are my arms to care For the birds' when maples and elmsare bare. 1 am a pine tree green and wide, Close to my heart the wood folks hide By day they flutter and fly and run And I guard their sleep when the day is done.
