Mrs.Willow poem summary

Answer:
Explanation:
Willow Poem’ by William Carlos Williams describes the life cycle of a willow tree that is surprised by the coming of winter.
The poem begins with the speaker describing how there is a willow tree sitting on the bank of the river. He says that the tree is always there, and is always a willow. It has lasted through springs, summers, and falls. It has now made it all the way to another winter.
Due to the way the tree lives, and its perseverance and resistance to being “bitten by the sun,” it has taken no notice of the fact that winter has finally come. Eventually the cold catches up with the leaves and they begin to pale and fall off the tree into the river below. The waters catch the leaves and sweep them off along with the tide. The tree was able to live out its entire life cycle without concern, worry or despair for the coming days. Now it has finally, although with loathing, shed its leaves and started on its way to new life in spring.
