My friend, the Lovers Willow Tree,

My friend,
My dear Willow tree,
Nice was our visit,
In this nice sunny day!

The moments of meditation,
The delicious stories you passed to me,
The love stories,
The hurts and joys stories,
I read them all,
In the texture of your lifeful skin!

Thanks to you,
And thanks to me,
To have been on time,
To convince to leave some parts of you,
Maybe, the most important parts of you,
On this small Island of hope,
In this lifefull park!

I was almost about,
To let my tears drop,
To be proud,
And thankful to your try,
To the small tree,
You gifted us,
With your last breaths of life,

The small branches and leaves,
Growing on your dry left trunk...

My Willow tree,
The lovers's Willow tree,
Now, the kindergarten kids' tree,
I am grateful,
I am so happy,
To know that,
What I have always believed,
Could be so true,
And the conviction of,
Letting you stay,
Reading your sorrows and desperate cries,
For willing to stay,
And reading the heart of all those lovers,
Sitting down on your branches,
Sharing the most wonderful and sweetest moments,
So Unforgettable!
To let you re-live, conserve the hope!

My Willow tree,
I saw today,
All I needed to see,
I might have been called for a pilgrimage to you,
And I stayed long time with you,
Through long meditating emotions,
Travelling through each line and each grains of your skin,
And, hearing the beats of our hearts,
Listening to the most delightful songs,
Oh, thank you, thank to me, thank to the lovers,
To the kids, their teachers,
To the visible and invisible life,
And, here you are,
Alive and so delicately present!
