Silhouette of Trees ’Twas clusk, and a row of trees, Outlined against the dreary sky, Threw up their arms as if in praise Of Ood, the Maker of all th ings. Burned yet, as if they too had souls, They swayed in unison with the tune ; The wind- played in their scarred- branches. I wondered why God- made the- day Bo bleak and dreary ; Then on second thought I knew that He had made it for this picture, A study in black and ‘while, such as artists Ooulcl never make, though they tried- a lifetime. A silhouette of trees! All looking toward their God- 0, that we could know and trust like they! -VIRGINIA BARTON. r 21 ]
