Short description

The Weeping Tree is a story about a mystical place in another dimension that the human soul goes when they are depressed, overwhelmed with sadness and need a place of solace to spend time and reflect. We all go off somewhere in our emotional time of need, this is just my version of where the mind or spirit goes. This place is where all my writings come from, my dreams.

Extended description

The Weeping Tree is a symbolic place that the human soul goes during times of depression, apathy, sadness or grief. It is a place where you go to heal and the willows acts as the supernatural force at work while you're trying to find your way back home. The Mother of all willows keeps the human spirit and rebirth of their soul always at hand, by her sympathetic nature and influence on all the willows in the grove she helps the human spirit heal and be on their way. But the grove, even though they number over a thousand trees feel loneliness in their being and long for the mortals to continue to walk among them, and stay in the Land of Heartbreak, on the Isle of Gloom. The moral of this short story in prose is that even though the shadow of gloom overcomes us all at one time or another, there is a force that is stronger than all of us working towards our ultimate happiness.

Review by: Jerri Lynn Maxwell on Oct. 01, 2012 : star star star star
Beautifully written, surprisingly meaningful, I felt as if I could feel the breeze against my face and hear the rustle of the leaves as the author transported me to the Isle of Gloom. I look forward to Mr Maxwell's upcoming ebooks!
