Willow Songs In the dawning of the fourth month, It is willow’s time to dress again, As she slip-streams yellow green of Sheer. But she waits, I know, As tender leaves lift in wind, For the time When summer ascends, And she becomes lush and lusty With cicada sounds When she shall shade, in shadow, her lovers of summer. |

"When summer ascends, And she becomes lush and lusty With cicada sounds When she shall shade, in shadow, her lovers of summer." Love this keeper Karilea.. The willow, especially in summer is one of my favourites. They remind me so much of a strong person... they can bend but do not break. Beautiful write...has me smiling. ~Hugs & Smiles, Nancy~ To have lived the dream of a love so true... |

Hello Karilea! Finally finished with our move -- tired, exhausted, broke, but happy! As she slip-streams yellow green of Sheer -- that is a fine, fine line, my dear. Pure poetry. Corinne |
