I lay underneath the willow’s tear
Sky unbound above
My dog sleeps near
there’s naught to hear
and at last I know true love
For all a man needs is
a dog and some trees
to be content for the years to come

This was a beautiful and perfectly simplistic write. I'm impressed. The flow was also excellent, though it's a little broken in the last line of each stanza. I love this.
Breathtaking! -
I love the simplicity in this... the message and the length go together really well. I think the only thing that was a little off was the flow, it was kinda choppy. Other than that this was a well written piece.
