Willow Wind Dance ~*~ On the pond reeds of cat tail dry brown seed gone to fluff left to wind there, ice is shimmering crusting pond, trapped life below still come, still winter day Willow bare lowering fingers of limb to earth draping over in exhausted slumber sleep, Willow, sleep Hibernation of gray cooled sun’s rays wait, wait, wait for new day shhh, wait… wait… wait… On the pond winds shift blue ice cracks in deepening chill white graces Willow, now in slumber’s resting grace at peace, at peace, long night shivering Now read slow, as that is how the day shall glow For time shall pass winds shall howl wolves shall prowl deer shall travel by owl will grace long night’s sky All will come about in His good time, season to season to give rhythm to rhyme First sign of warm comes from rays of morn Willow feels the blood of life course and course through her veins and slowly beckons life to spring from pond, slowly fingering lowered limbs come… come… come… Pond awakens life begins to croak alive Cardinal sits among Willow’s branch singing song of wake, trilling song of life warbling song of love Inviting bluebird to come join colors Willow bright reds and blues Willow pushes forth her dress of slender yellow-green lacy skirt soft spring winds come to claim first dance of Willow’s spring Dance, Willow, Dance Shift in wind of spring beckon hearts to sing while all to wear fresh green to visit oft pond’s scene Capturing the Willow Wind Dance 03 December 00 revised 22 February 02 [This message has been edited by Sunshine (08-01-2003 07:56 PM).] |

Sunshine, no reply could adequately express my response to your beautiful poem, so I am gracefully 'boughing' out!   Linda |

Wow, dear Karilea! What a precious gift, I am so grateful and honored. I read it and felt a very intense emotion grow in my heart and this happens when words really touch me deeply with their beauty. This is a gem and I'll keep it in my library along with your fantastic "Pine Tree" (the solitary one!).  The Willow Wind Dance is an inspired work of art....showing your heart and your skills. You danced along in this dance! Thank you so! Hugs and love! Margherita  |

A graceful dance you describe...flowing beautifully. Tonight these words seem to sing sweetly in my ears for so many reasons. All will come about in His good time, season to season to give rhythm to rhyme So enjoyed, Karilea. Patricia |
