Sugar Maple

By Maeve Hushman, Staff Writer

Sweet little sugar maple 

With golden leaves 

Turning red up to the top 

Watching the perfect little leaves 

Scatter around the ground 

Sweet little sugar maple 

Stopping just to stare at you 

Small and just a bit innocuous 

But noticeable 

Seen 

Loved 

Noted 

The sweetest sugar maples 

Are those that are secret
