beyond the protest willow limbs shifting with the breeze

Wow. "Beyond the protest"–beyond our [temporary] concerns and outrages, the beauty we may miss, as well as the indifference to our concerns and outrages….What a powerful poem.
Nice one Edward.
Powerful, indeed!

Hi 'Edward'
Another beauty:
I remember this so well, and that stunning first line that resonates throughout the next two lines and long after I've read the poem.
It's stunningly original and forever topical.
warm regards,
Alan
