'weeping willow' or 'joy's reach'

'weeping willow' or ‘joy’s reach’ timothy r gates, 8/13/2010

weeping willow
sweeping once alive foliage,
these will find their burial
a blessed repose -
giving resurrection
another weeping willow.
'happy tears,'
seedlings chant
‘ashes, ashes, all fall down,’
children dance
the dance of skipping.
