Leona MacDougall has been singing and writing poetry as a child to present day. She submitted this poem to us about “A Willow Tree” that tells so much about how we would all love to be each day as people, both in our relationship to ourself and to others! Thanks for submitting this to us, Leona.
I wish i wish with all my might
to be a willow tree on a stormy night
bending without judgement at natures will
while at the roots I’d be strong and still
if other trees are afraid or forlorn
I’d lovingly assure them through every storm
what’s gone is meant to be
we choose the storms that set us free
releasing the past so we can look ahead
better uncertain alive than certainly dead
when I grow up I know what I’ll be
a fabulously flexible willow tree
i wish i wish with all my might
to be a willow tree on a stormy night
