The imperfection and beauty of this old willow tree you have captured well. I remembering being in awe of a tree and felt it strangely gazing back at me on a cold icy day.

Re: Merkie
Thanks Troosha I must add that this is a true story. I do not live in that house anymore but I am sure the tree is still there.

I was cheering for that old willow!  It’s nice to read some poetry that give us hope that spring is around the corner.  Some days - when it’s grey and all is standing still like today – it seems like spring may never come.   What a beautiful piece!

You're lovely poem of the season's, hit just the right note for here today in North Ontario. Lots of snow but the temperature had gone up to +5c after -20'sc for weeks. I loved the way you just created spring at the end.

Re: BC-A
Thanks Bill. The yellow back ground fits the golden leaves of the willow!

 The seasonal theme’s one of my favorites to work with myself love. The willow tree makes a clever repeat symbol that ties it together. BCA, Bill*s Ca e
