Willow Tryst

Without words I follow you Into the willow's sheltering shade, Leaves softly swaying sweet welcome Limbing a tree serenade; Overhead song birds keep vigil Watching love between man and maid. Tambour rhythm of two hearts Racing, impetuous and free, Yearning for love's sacred moment Secretly shared with a willow tree; Two lovers tryst, my husband with me.
