THE CHESTNUT BURR
4 And soon the house that kept it warm                 5 But the little tree, as it wailing lay.
Was tossed about by the autumn storm.                 Dreamed a wonderful dream one day.
The stem was cracked, the old house fell.               Of how it would break its coat of brown,
And the chestnut burr was an empty shell.            And live as a tree, to grow up and down.
