Willow Tree
Beneath a weeping willow tree
two children fell in love.
They held each other close that night
and wished on stars above.
Beneath a weeping willow tree
they said their love was true,
they dreamed of days as yet to come,
of happiness they knew.
Beneath a weeping willow tree
they shared a virgin kiss.
They swore no one would come between
a love as true as this.
Beneath a weeping willow tree
the months and years flew on.
A child was born, a baby boy
then grew and soon was gone.
Beneath a weeping willow tree
two lovers watched the sky
and wished on stars as old as time
that love would never die.
Beneath a weeping willow tree
two lovers aged to grey.
“I love you still” the woman spoke.
“I too” the man would say.
Beneath a weeping willow tree
two lovers were turned free.
Two graves still stand to mark the spot
for all eternity.
that is so beautiful
😀
This is the sweetest thing I’ve ever read!
