Weeping Willow

Weeping willow you stand so tall and high,
But every night I still hear you weep and sigh.
It seems this clueless world will never know
That even in all your beauty you feel so hollow.

This is great...I love the Weeping Willow and wrote a poem about it myself. I love the way you honor the magic and beauty while capturing the sadness of this wonder of nature. Great wriite! Smiles from Lolita

Love the way you use the "weeping willow" to describe loneliness, a "hollow" feeling within. Beautiful verse, Andrea!
