Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHICJKLMANOPLA| I can tell balsam trees | A |
| By their grayish bluish silverish look of smoke | B |
| Pine trees fringe out | C |
| Hemlocks look like Christmas | D |
| The spruce tree is feathered and rough | E |
| Like the legs of the red chickens in our poultry yard | F |
| I can study my geography from chickens | G |
| Named for Plymouth Rock and Rhode Island | H |
| And from trees out of Canada | I |
| No I shall leave the chickens out | C |
| I shall make a new geography of my own | J |
| I shall have a hillside of spruce and hemlock | K |
| Like a separate country | L |
| And I shall mark a walk of spires on my map | M |
| A secret road of balsam trees | A |
| With blue buds | N |
| Trees Fat smell like a wind out of fairy land | O |
| Where little people live | P |
| Who need no geography | L |
| But trees | A |
