The Trees Of Maine.

Inc frees OIL Maine.
There are beautiful trees in the sunny South,
Where the palms and magnolias be,
The lemon and olive are famed in song
In countries far over the sea.
But dear to my heart, as the friends of my
youth,
Are the trees Of my own native land,
The maple, the ash, the graceful elm,
And the sturdy old oak SO grand.
love the spruce and the fragrant hr,
The hemlocx with its mossy green;
But the king of the forest is the lordly pine,
And the s.lady birch is the queen.
The winds through the tops of these birchen
trees
Seem signing fond adieu
To the forms that once roved thro' the forest
shades
And sailed in the bark canoe.
But the grand old pines with heads in the sky
Sing ever glad refrain.
They sing OF health and hope and cheer.
o, dear old pines of Maine
Perchance when reach the Summer Land
There, planted by Love Divine,
Among the trees by the Water Of Life
shall find the birch and the pine.
-E,izabesh Fletcher Goodsrin.
