I'll be damned! Having burned or try to burn wet wood, I was HIGHLY skeptical of the claims in the firewood poem. Fortunately I was able to put it to a scientific test! I had just split a half cord of White Ash a day earlier (Saturday 2/21) and I grabbed a piece from the pile. Did it burn, yes! Don't get me wrong, it still emitted some moisture, but it wasn't like burning a piece of wet oak. It took to the flame almost as good as my dry wood. I'm really excited about next Winter, this Ash should burn very nicely dry.
I'll take some high resolution shots of not only the tree but also the split wood, soon.
