The Willow Tree

I know a place where we can go and hide from every one just part the branches of the willow tree and crawl away from the sun Some branches are low but, most are high and they wave away in the wind I wonder who they're speaking to as they dance when the clouds move in Oh, no! They won't, They won't say a word if you crawl up under to hide they know it's a secret between them and you by that you must abide So, come with me to the willow tree and we'll hide 'til the sun goes down in the glow of the dark we'll run from the park 'til tomorrow when we come back around...

Ahhhhhhhhh...this reminds me of my own, " secret" hiding place when I was a kid! To this day, I believe the Willow has been faithful in not repeating what was told there. ; ) This is a lovely poem that brings nostalgia to this reader. Thanks!:)
