Underneath the Weeping Willows
A gentle breeze whispered through the leaves of the willow trees, casting dancing shadows upon the soft, emerald ground. The air drifted heavy with the scent of honeysuckle and damp earth. A lone figure, cloaked in a dark blue robe, sat beneath the willows' arching branches, their gaze fixed upon the silent waters of the pond.

A tear, unshed, traced a path down their cheek, disappearing into the folds of their robe. The willow branches moved gently above them, as if in sympathy.
