Willow sapling, no taller than me,
towards the river it leans –
spindly whips covered with leaves
in the water dangle green –
some would call it keening
but not me.
It’s too young to know the meaning
of sorrow. This willow is not weeping;
moving one way with the stream,
and back in the breeze,
its constant swaying:
a dance of delight.
*perpetual Motion
