THE POOR TREES STAND AND SHIVER SO, by ANNETTE WYNNE
Last Line: Without a cloak in wind and snow
Subject(s): Trees; Winter
Last Line: Without a cloak in wind and snow
Subject(s): Trees; Winter
THE poor trees stand and shiver so,
Like ragged beggars in a row.
Without a cloak in frost and snow.
I think it's strange about the trees ''"
In summer when there's little breeze
They all dress up rich as you please.
No beggars then, but fine and grand
Like Princes of a mighty land
Across the world in rows they stand.
But now in cold they shiver so
Like ragged beggars in a row ''"
Without a cloak in wind and snow.
