The MAJESTIC MINNESOTA--WoodLANDS
In These
MAGESTIC
MINNESOTA
WoodLands
You will be
So in AWE, and
AMAZED to
SEEs
A FAMILY of Trees
Clumped, side by side
With PRIDE
Of TWENTY
To THIRTY
TREEs
In the
DIRECT
CENTER
And MIDDLE
Of the
TREEs
F-A-M-I-L-Y
Will be THE
C--E--N--T--U--R--I--E--S
OLD
STRONG-and-BOLD
GREAT
GREAT
GREAT
GRAMPS
T--R--E--E
Then I COUNTED
Twenty-Five
TREEs
Of the
SAME-Kind
SuRRounDED
Closely,
Side by side
All
In a circle touching each other
A-R-O-U-N-D
Creating a FAMILY
S-T-R-O-N-G
And
E--N--D--U--R--I--N--G
And
MINNESOTA
Solid
Bold and
SOUND
These GREAT
TREEs
Are so
MINNESOTA--PROUD
RESILIANT
S-U-R-V-I-V-I-N-G
And
WISE
Because--ALL--TWENTY-FIVE
TREEs
Stand closely--KNIT--TOGETHER
With deep--ROOTS--holding one another,
TIGHT
And cannot BE
TIPPED
Over by any
MINNESOTA-EXTREME
