Christa Swanson<br />
My Father Planted a Silver Maple<br />
My father planted a Silver Maple<br />
The summer I was born<br />
At the brand new house on Champlain<br />
The year Hitler marched into Austria<br />
The summer I was born<br />
Right in the middle of the back yard<br />
The year Hitler marched into Austria<br />
And Caryl was still alive<br />
Right in the middle of the backyard<br />
Every year it grew a foot<br />
And Caryl was still alive<br />
We shared the bedroom<br />
Every year it grew a foot<br />
One side of the leaves was fuzzy<br />
We shared the bedroom<br />
We could see it from our window<br />
One side of the leaves was fuzzy<br />
The war ended. Caryl died<br />
We could see it from our window<br />
The seeds had little wings<br />
The war ended. Caryl died<br />
At the brand new house on Champlain<br />
The seeds had little wings<br />
My father planted a Silver Maple<br />
