Willow in the Rain (reprise)

My response to Carpe Diem #992 Willow – I have taken one of the first poems I posted last year, deconstructed it and turned it into a tanka.

 

a bothersome breeze

buffets the willow bending

with the weight of tears,

holding up anaemic clouds

above our soggy garden
