MY PUSSY WILLOW
Marylyn Marin
Boothbay Harbor, Maine
It’s pussy willow time
It’s hard to find a pussy willow as fine as mine,
Sitting on my shelf waiting for the sun to shine
Ow! The leaves are out now green and bright.
The roots are long, thin and white.
How shall I help them out?
Oh! Planting them seems just fine right now.
