UNDERNEATH THE WILLOW TREE

On a dark night,

Underneath a willow tree,

A little girl cries.

Lost and alone,

She longs for someone to hold her.

For a time, she sits there

With crystalline tears coming down her cheeks.

Suddenly the leaves rustle

And a twig breaks.

She looks up, and sees a Man

With the Most Beautiful Smile.

He kneels and holds out His hand,

Then gently pulls her into His arms.

Together the Man and the little girl

Dance with sweet music only they could hear…

Throughout the dark night…

Underneath the willow tree..

The Man whispers,

"Don't cry. I am here."
