Celebrating Maple Syrup Day

December 17th, the syrup flows, from northern trees where the cold wind blows.

Indigenous hands first tap the trees, boiling the sap with care and expertise.

It's National Maple Syrup Day, hooray! Pour it on pancakes,

waffles, and plate. Golden and sweet, from the north it comes,

a taste of tradition in every drum. Settlers learned the art,

passed it down, from forests and farms across the town. A labor of

love, each batch so fine. Nature's sweet gift, a taste divine.

Celebrate farmers who gather the sap. Boil it, bottle it, fill every gap.
