Tender hands reach to embrace
this rare yet strong earth, our space
zepyhr's sway the willow tree
a picture of hope's liberty.
The willow set in solid land
roots the test of time will stand
example's of mankind's mighty gift
to lead the world, no more to drift.
Foundations strong where water's flow
nature in harmony where all may grow
reaching out all are in tune
where one day faith will see all commune.
A symbol of gracefulness and flair
to willow's capacity we can compare
scene's of peace and serenity
a world with true identity.
Humble, accepting all with value
striving for a world that's true
floating down the one way river
an icon of accord to deliver.

Great use of metaphor and imagery. Your poetry is SO readable I don't know why you don't have more comments. I have often enjoyed the Contest you have sponsored.
