Lightbulb Brain Stumper: @2

People seemed to like the challenge of Brain Stumper, so I decided to come out with another one!

I challenge YOU, the anonymous internet, to solve my glorious mind crushing puzzle~!

The puzzle is still simple, the answer is also simple, and if you think you know the answer, be the first to post it below (No edits please)!

^_^ Lets see who gets it first!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a hidden room there is a Poem etched on the wall:
"The Whale, Boarded Wherewithal: "

Which of the four below should be the next word, and why?
Choice A) Maple
Choice B) Sequoia
Choice C) Birch
Choice D) Dog Wood
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First one to solve it gets their name added to this post!

First Place: (Maybe you!)
Second Place: (Hopefully Not You...)
Third Place: (Try and be faster next time!)

To help people out, here are some wrong guesses!
(good try guys)

1. RobKellas ~
Maple. I know why. (^_^;;; Apparently not well enough to explain?)

2. w15hb0n3 ~

Dog Wood, because it follows the 2-5-2 syllable haiku format
(O.O wow. That is elegant. But far too complex for this one.)


3. Blade ~
I think the answer is birch, it just seems like it fits into the sentence...
(^_^ Don't worry, the answer makes a lot more sense... You will like it.)

4. Bono ~

Sequoia, It's the only tree big enough to support a whale!
(O.o a whale would either be impaled by it, or would snap it in half. Cool idea though.)

5. Popcorn Devil ~

Dog Wood, because every second word begins with a W...
(^_^ The answer is not that odd, I promise it makes sense.)

MAJOR HINT (WARNING, POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT!)
Quote:
Ok, here is a hint:
The poem could have also been:
"All Wait, Animals Announcing:"
Without changing the answer.
ANSWER (WARNING, SPOILER ALERT!)
Quote:
Like I said, the answer is easy: If you count the number of vowels in each word, it goes: 1 2, 3 4: Therefore, the answer must be Sequoia, which has 5 vowels. Congradulations to everyone whom got close!

My guess is Dog Wood, because it follows the 2-5-2 syllable haiku format... so does maple I guess, but I'm sticking to Dog wood.

I have no idea, but I would guess Dog Wood because every second word begins with a W.
