Easily She Weeps
I wonder why the willow weeps.
What sadness does she know?
I wonder if she sadly sleeps
As she dreams of long ago?
Could the winter be the reason,
For a willow likes the spring?
Yet regardless of the season
I suspect a different thing.
For once a caller stayed awhile,
And still the fire keeps--
Since then she finds it hard to smile,
But easily she weeps!
