The Crying Tree
February 17, 2011
Oh, Willow tree
Why do you weep?
Your leaves
Float down to the river below
Leaving tiny ripples when they land
Like tears of a young girl
Cascading into the fresh water
Shade her wise Willow
Protect her with your great limbs
Let her lie beneath you
While her heart mends
When she is ready
She will leave your cool shadow
But do not feel lonely
She will return
To keep you company
