Weeping By The Willow
The weeping willow shades your tears,
Why do they fall so heavily?
Why do your heaves drown out the sighs of the leaves above you?
Who hurt you, lonely stranger?
The willow drinks your tears in solidarity; it seems her words aren’t reaching you.
So she turns to taking in your sadness through her roots, turning sorrow to sustenance
See, the willow is not a solitary tree.
She may weep, but she knows to hold you through her tears
I see her branches brush against your shoulder,
I hear her leaves whisper soothing coos to you through the wind
But, it seems to be in a language you can’t understand
The cadence of the clouds
The rolling, howling wind
Chattering leaves and accented rumbling roots…
Could I translate for you?
