  Some observations suggest that solar spicules show small amplitude and high
frequency oscillations of magneto-acoustic waves, which arise from photospheric
granular forcing. We apply the method of MHD seismology to determine the period
of kink waves. For this purposes, the oscillations of a magnetic cylinder
embedded in a field-free environment is investigated. Finally, diagnostic
diagrams displaying the oscillatory period in terms of some equilibrium
parameters are provided to allow a comparison between theoretical results and
those coming from observations.
