Purposefully Lost
Purposefully lost in the willow stillness
of a late summer meadow
in the deer-filled dusk—a silver evening
following a blue and amber day.

"Purposefully lost in the willow stillness"
Weeping willows are one of my favorite trees. When I drive past one, I often have the urge to pull over and go sit underneath it. But alas, they are usually in other peoples' yards. ;)
