Life Is A Willow, Expect To Weep From Time To Time.
© mary j. Zayas 2008
Shedding tears from time to time
may sometimes bring tranquility.
Cleansing the soul, like deep breaths
strengthening our fragility.
Weeping seems a part of life
as natural as the air.
Sometimes joy, sometimes love
and sometimes deep despair.
So glance up at each bending branch
take note of the willow.
Do not be shocked nor surprised
to find tears on your pillow.
This tree unique for it bends
in harsh winds that blow by.
Do not break, but be like it
not breaking when you cry.

I like this sensitive piece of writing, it touches the spot but does not "over-egg" the pudding. Nicely balanced and euphonius.
