The Weeping Willow Tree

The Weeping Willow Tree Never worried when you were below Never saw the tear that fed the grand willow The willow tree grew Large and high with summer rains Always curious no one under the tree Until that day I drove by You were hanging Finally free

Your ending gave me chills Arthur. It is sad, yet knowing someone is free from pain you have to hope they learn from the experience and never choose to escape life that way again. A powerful piece! 7 ; )
