A Weeping Willow
May 18, 2015
Just as a soft storm leaves a delicate drizzle,
So does the drizzle leave a weeping willow.
No fruit to bare in it’s drooping locks;
A half-hearted shade, a shredded shield.
As the bride cries of desperate demise
For the groom growing to doom,
A weeping willow weeps for gloom,
Never blossoming another bloom.
After storms are beckoned by,
And drizzles done and dry,
The weeping willow weeps alone
Forever, wet or dry.
