Chantelle Smith Poet Personification

I am a Willow Tree

My head is full of green hair,
Locks dipped low to water blue
You will always find me close to ground
Near to my love so true.

Our hands hold each other so very tight,
I drink of his love with all my might.
My legs stand on the river so strong,
hidden by my locks so so long.

Watch and listen, everyone knows
the sweet sweet sound of my Weeping Willow song.
