"Willow Weep For Me" is the old "torch"song that always comes to mind when I see a willow tree. It was sung by many artists, like Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra. The lyrics use the physical characteristics of the weeping willow to convey the" weepy" sentiment of a lost love....."Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me."
But mostly I love the wispy, gracefulness of this tree, especially when a breeze blows across and through its branches.
