Title: Ogham Variations
Fandom: Original
Rating: G

Summary: An incomplete catalog of the Ogham Trees set in complex form.
Rushes are round and sedges have edges
They grow in wet ground, surrounded by hedges,
Of willow wood sound and not on high ledges
Yew trees have arils, Ash trees ash-keys
Aspen and Mallow, umbrellas for bees
Field grasses hollow, Thistles that tease
Rowans have berries, vines all entwine
Beech leaves are serried, Birch leaves bright shine
Hawthorn may carries, as hedgerows they line
Alder and elder, oak ivies climb
Holly and hazel and birches sublime
Ogham and honor combine in this rhyme
