Title: For The Love
Love endures
Love lasts
A love between
A lad and lady
The first dreamed
Of glory and fame
But the second only
Dreamed of love and him
Love endures
Love lasts
The vows they took
Not ones of marriage
But ones of unity all the same
One vowed to search
For the Holy Grail
For immortality
Love endures
Love lasts
But the other vowed to wait
For her love
For him
Under the Willow's embrace
Weeping each night
Still waiting
Love endures
Love lasts
Separated but bonded
By the ties of love
Gifts left by the lad
But her one wish never fulfilled
The Lady wept
But she waited
Love endures
Love lasts
So she died
Weeping, but waiting
Seeking her love's presence
But never searching for another's
Always alone
But always true
Love endures
Love lasts
Yet the Willow had been watching
Always watching
And hence the Willow
Lowered its embrace
To capture her spirit
And her beauty
Love endures
Love lasts
For all eternity
The Willow bows, weeping
In honour and sorrow
For the pure love
Held within her heart
So living forever is . . .
The love that endures
The love that lasts
Her love
The love within . . .
The White Willow
