All of Yew

The bonsai mirrors your grace a miniature yew jade eyed searching through black needle lashes lust hidden inside. A yew pruned to perfection would out strip the forest fine, a single shutter caresses like limbs on the wind. With sweet clarity refined will be the bowed head of yew for our love is so inclined for generations.
