beneath the willow
the balcony overlooks the weeping willow
as it placidly awaits the wind to chill its leaves to rest
and under the thick guise, you may find the fruit
round and full
still as gently kissed as a contented lover.
in the silence of the night
I no longer see the brown tints
or Ophelia sorrow brimming the surface;
the fallen clutches of branches
and the outstretched roots
softly drinks from the stream.
in the moon’s majesty
our meeting of coagulated passion
does not thwart the lullaby of guitars and violins;
if you helped me to grasp a ripe fruit
I place it grateful between my teeth to kiss the juice.
you told me you grew these in her memory
I wonder if it is her that you remember nights
of insomnia bouts && false security statements
the August night told me to not give up
so I suckle on the fruit to keep from hurting

Beautifully Written!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was a sad but beautifully written piece which seems to be somewhat full of regret that a love has ended. That is at least how I read it and the meaning I derived from it. Thanks for sharing it with me and thanks for hosting this contest!!!~~ -
