"Help one another,"
the snowflake said
As it nestled down
in its fleecy bed
"One of us would not
be felt
One of us would quickly
melt
But I will help you
and you help me
And then what a big
white drift we will be."
"Help one another,"
the maple spray
Said to its fellow
leaf one day
"The wind would wither
me here alone
And I should be gone
ere the day is done
But I will help you,
and you help me
And then what a splendid
shade there will be."
"Help one another,"
the dewdrop cried
Seeing another drop
close by its side
"The warm summer breeze
would drive me away
And I should be gone
ere the close of day
But I will help you
and you help me,
And we'll make a brook
and run to the sea.
