Weeping willow, why so blue? Are you brokenhearted, too? Carefree spirit, please advise. Life has given much surprise. Needing strength to carry on, Leading to a life withdrawn. You’ve weathered storms, quietly, In the end you’ll be set free. But standing here, beauty shines! Each part of you, vast, aligns. Rooted within solid ground, Sage advice, both safe and sound. Dancing arms provide embrace, Calming presence, gives solace. Hair that blows among the breeze, Flowing, laughing, with such ease. What your beauty knows in truth, Has existed since your youth. I realized, then, by the tree We aren’t so different, you and me.
