Pussy Willow


Pussy Willow
written November 29th, 2020

I walked by you this summer
dressed in your green finery.
If I thought anything
it was, "what a nice little tree."
I am sorry say
I did not look close enough
form much of an impression.

Now fall has come
you have shivered most of your leaves off
a few hold on tenaciously
trying in vain cover your virtues.

I look at you and am I ever surprised!
Your branches are craggy and twisted
displaying the lovely complexity of advanced age
result of many exposures the storms of life.

The tips of your branches
hold fuzzy little nubs
that remind me of pussy willows.
I stand near and marvel
at the aching tenderness of your womanhood
kept hidden until now
under your leafy raiment.

I look but I do not touch
I have not asked permission
and I will not.
I hope the world
continues to pass you by
leaving you unmolested.
It is not easy to be so revealed.

I look forward
to seeing you next summer
all dressed up again.
I will smile and nod
as I pass by
knowing what your verdant covering
hides beneath it.

This poem is more of a conversation, or reflection, on a tree that I walk by each day. I worry about the varying length of the lines, the differences in the stanzas, and punctuation. But it is what it is and I have to let it go at some point. Many of my poems are filled with angst and pain. This one makes me smile.

I enjoyed reading your poem. In addition, gazing at your naked back and derrière enhanced the experience.

Thank You for the share

It is a lovely Poam.
It is true of any tree.
It it true about people too.
For every hour of every day
We change in many ways
We grow older ,taller , fatter
Then with time we reverse.
Become one with the earth.
"We where born to die what we do inbetween is what counts"
I sit in the woods many day wondering what many old trees haVe seen before me.
I've sat in the woods and herd the mighty oak crash to the ground
Only to lay there till it decays .
What a sound it had made on its last standing day.
Only the animals and I herd it last it's last cry as now that it lays to rest.
Yet it still has a function
it still can be used
it grew for a reason
All of them season

Xoxoxo to you ,Thomas

I'm glad my poem made you think about being in the forest. Thank you for sharing that memory. It's like I was there. Forests aren't something I spend much time in, so thank you.

The beauty of this poem holds true, regardless of line length, meter or irregular stanza. It speaks to me and I feel a connection to the tree that can be difficult simply with words. I commend you on your imagery!

blessings,

It matters not if you follow the literary rules, what is more meaningful is how you felt after letting go. We write to purge. We write to exult. We write to share. We write to feel alive in the allotted time of existence and leave a part of ourselves to be remembered. You have done this and more. Well done

My name is MrWrong and I approved this comment

Sometimes I write to make myself and others smile. It's rare lol. But I love her shivering off her leaves, trying to hide her virtue, nodding to her as I walk by. Thank you!
