Seaweed, Tussock and Fern

Emblems of storm and danger,
Spindrift and mountain stern,
Plants that welcome the stranger-
Seaweed, tussock, and fern.
Known to the world-wide ranger,
Who sailed on the "Never Return,"
Emblems of storm and danger-
Flax and tussock and fern.
Plants that welcome the stranger,
Sea-swept and driven astern,
Beloved by the wide-world ranger-
Seaweed, tussock, and fern.
