The willow tree marks hours, days, seasons. A grey winter day sinks into darkness and a single shaft of gold illumines bare branches, raindrops shimmering like Christmas. Spring turns the bark red, and now the morning sun coaxes sleeping green to emerge, slowly, slowly, until there it stands, fully dressed, each leaf rimmed with light. Wind turns the canopy back on itself, silvery, shooshing like the sea. It learned long ago to bend, unresisting, until the storm is blown out, and stillness returns. The thin crescent moon is caught in the topmost stems, until it shakes itself free, to soar upwards, to chase Venus through the starlight. Night and day, the year is turning; an imperceptible breath of frost touches air and grass, and a solitary yellow leaf falls silently to the ground.
