The Bird of the Weeping Willow
I am the bird of the weeping
willow. I whine and sway
I cry at bay.
I toss, I turn – I yearn, I wish.
And whisper to plead,
set me free from the swaying,
the willow that whispers.
I wade and lean
Falling, falling, falling
and fly – wait!
I cry behind my
Weeping willow.
No. Tonight I will fly.
Wind whipping to spread my wings
of love of hope of waking my dreams
I sing my song a singer sings
The song of the bird of the weeping
willow. Welcomed, awoken,
washed of the whispers, the wicked
laws that wound around me like
binds to my saddened willow.
Tonight I fly free, I fly for me.I am the bird of the weeping
