There's a gentle tree with a satiny bark,
All silver-white, and upon it, dark,
Is many a crosswise line and mark -
She's a tree with no mistaking!
The Birch is this light and lovely tree, . . .

An angel's single feather,
Also a dash of love and care,
Then mix them both together.
Add a sentiment or two,
A thoughtful wish or line,

For fear of little men;
Wee folk, good folk,
Trooping all together,
Green jacket, red cap,
And white owl's feather! . . .
