Hey baby! Look at me!
Aren't I a lovely willow tree!
I think I'm pretty sexy!
How many trees can lay like this?
Come on over!... Give me a kiss!
I'll treat you to some woody bliss!
I'm out here on this beach,
So my bark can bray a sultry speech,
To bring you within my reach.
Here I am, right by the sand!
Green pom-pom in my pretty hand!
I think I look so very grand!
Don't you just love my shaggy top!
You think i'm easy? OH Stop!!
Before I call a cop!

Author Notes
Just a little nonsense.
I took this picture of a willow tree at Lake Phalen in St. Paul, Minnesota in August of 2012. Such an unusual tree. It reminded me of a model posing. It even has a belly button. So, this poem was always waiting to come out. It finally did today as I was going through my photographs. It will become one of my Animated Stills collection.
Animated stills are poems where inanimate objects take on human, animal, or spirit forms, traits, or articles. They are derived from Photographs I have taken, that have moved me to write a poem associated with it. This poem exists only because of this photograph that tickled my Muse.
