Willow branches bend and sway-
In harmony they dance with ease.
Lilting tunes play through the leaves
Like nothing else I've heard today.
One leaf leaps off to join the world
With flawless wings she flies away-
Life beckons her to romp, to play.
Eventually she'll land, unfurled
And quiet on the sodden ground-
Fullfilled with joy and life and sound.
