AWEE,, ANNE, I'm very moved by your comment. Thank you.. And all this time I thought different. It' feels very nice to have your words comforting me and my decisions. about your poem: A willow always holds stories and memories. I have an oak tree, behind my house. I will be moving soon, and i will miss it dearly. Thanks once again,..pd

An image of deep reflection...my parents had a willow and a corkscrew tree in our backyard..Just prior to a storm I would love to stand at the back of the property and watch them sway...Enjoyed thies senryu much, Anne. Thinking of you today, Gwendolen
