The Heartbeat of The Willow

~*~
Breathtaking autumn colors through a willow tree
As summer gives way to fall so elegantly
But as the harsh winds of winter begin to blow
It will cause the heartbeat of the willow to slow
Dried up tears amass suddenly upon the ground
Yet trunk and limbs stand strong in silent resound
'Til spring when blissful showers bring nourishment
The willow knows the drops of rain are heaven sent
Budding once again as the seasons come full circle
I'm overwhelmed and in awe of this beautiful miracle
If one should ponder about life with uncertainty or doubt
The beating of the willow's heart is what it's all about
