Elegy for Weeping Willow

My faithful willow,
How long has it been since our first encounter?


Winter time and you were barren
I wandered, searching
While your friends and you watched
Under the gloomy, cold sky


Spring time and you smiled
I cycled, gazing
Your fresh foliage grew and rustled
Under the caress of the Sun

Summer time is here
And still I find you there
Sitting in your full glory

Parting time is pending, my friend
Should we part in tears?
Should we part in poignant smile?

I never knew how to say goodbye
So let me do it my way

No goodbye for you, my not-special-yet-sweet city. I have come silently, so silently will I leave. May we see each other again one day... perhaps when the autumn leaves fall.
