~ Willows ~
I am like the willows and you are like the earth that feeds, supports, and warms me.
You catch the water that is my craving and existence, and pour it down into my soul bringing life into me.
I draw it in hungrily and with it I grow, and flourish from your attentiveness to my needs.
I cool you in my shadows and you cradle me in your grasp.
And as you hold me… I sway in the touch of the jealous wind.
