Image result for weeping willow in cemetery

Seems like ten thousand years passed since I came, and here you are in this idyllic scene; under a weeping willow- pliant and tame. I, a soul empath with sorrow aflame, and now I stand lamenting my sorrow; my spirit is supine- numb and weary, names in veneration for each morrow. Oh, is it weakness that makes me teary? Then, a white aura of strength to borrow; incidental- my love lays in this g r e e n . . . ___________________________ July 5, 2019 Poetry/Rhyme/Seventeen is the Lucky Number Copyright Protected, ID 19-1164-274-02 All Rights Reserved.
