Willow


At this park in Alabama
There were willow trees swaying,
I love willow trees!
I think I want to be married under one.
They remind me of Pochohantus and of Grandmother Willow
... I wasn't allowed to watch that movie because of the tree
I love the way they rest and move slow and smooth
I love the way they seem to be gentle, yet strong
Different from an Oak or Maple, or any other
I love the way they drape and enclose
This spot on the Tennessee River,
I think I could stay there for a long time.
