Well, what would have such wondrous work worth wisdom wrought, had Walsingham been alive! -- It would have worked its way straight into the Elizabethan 'Wall' of Fame (no pun intended)!!! LOL ....

Wow, Carolyn! -- What in the world did woo you to write such a work fraught with puerile warmth, whose words I wobble to pronounce!! -- And, when will you ever stop winning me over?! ...

The Willow shall now have no reason whatsoever, to wilt or repine ... Wonderful work!

[And does that suffice enough? (For, this weary reviewer is woefully out of breath!!!)] LOL ...

    Wonderful, wondrous, weeeeeevooooos, written by you. Did you really think it was good? We have a willow tree that died and has to be removed. I was thinking of how I will miss its mystical shape and wrote this poem in about 10 minutes. I am so glad you like it, Sagnik. That makes my day, Love, Carolyn

    LOL ... It was not simply 'good', my beloved friend ; it was 'SPLENDID'! - and certainly calls for a reward in honor of its vitality ...
    Say Carolyn, what do you want? (I'm serious!) - I'll vouchsafe you something today, in commemoration of your beloved tree ... what do you intend? (please don't deny - I sincerely want to bequeath you something today) ...

This is great I love the idea of starting every line with a word that starts with a w. Now try a poem where every line start with the same word.

Hi Carolyn,

I love weeping willow trees. It's neat how you used mostly "w" words to write your poem about the majestic tree. Very good.

Kat

You and your poetry can stand tall with the best of the best on this site! Your use of the "w" words was not forced and made perfect sense to what you were describing to the reader. Exceptional, Carolyn, only the bookstore awaits you!!

This work has reached the exceptional level

A bold experiment and succesful, a celebration of the letter'W' which winds through this work wonderously, removing the need for punctuation as the 'W' slows the reading down in parts setting the poems pace. Also interesting to read a 'willow tree' perspective on things. John (GangGreen)
