Time to light the fireplace but check your wood. WOODS FOR BURNING: Logs to burn! logs to burn! Logs to save the coal a turn! Heres a word to make you wise When you hear the woodmans cries. Beechwood fires burn bright and clear Hornbeam blazes too If the logs are kept a year To season through and through Oak logs will warm you well That are old and dry Logs of pine will sweetly smell But the sparks will fly Birch logs will burn to fast Alder scarce at all Chestnut logs are good to last If cut in the fall Holly logs will burn like wax You may burn them green Elm logs like to smouldering flax No flame can be seen Beech logs for the winter time Yew logs as well Green Elder logs it is a crime For any man to sell Pear logs and Apple logs They will scent your room Cherry logs across the dogs Smell like flower of broom Ash logs smooth and grey Burn them green or old Burn up all that comes your way Theyre worth their weight in gold.
