The Weeping Willow Poem by Francis Wells
The Weeping Willow
Oh woe, Willow!
Crying onto your reflection –
A Narcissist in loss.
Unmoving but for rustling fronds:
Tips stroking at the water’s edge.
Mirrored in the River,
Mired in the Bank:
A mane;
A liquid crown;
A malachite fountain
Over Quicksilver,
Flowing.
Reflected into the sky,
Orpheus’ Pain.
