Under the Willow Tree

by Michael Corso

In 1940’s Manhattan, Jessie and Matt sat under the willow tree in Central Park. A refuge from daily life, they had spent many long hours beneath its boughs. When Matt learns Jessie will soon be moving away, he invites her to meet him one last time at the willow tree, but Jessie never came. Little did she know just what happened that night, or what she left behind. It wouldn’t be until many years later when she discovered the true magic of that place and what happened to her childhood love.

I first came to writing as a teenager, and I have fully embraced a love for reading and writing ever since. I love listening to a variety of music including, but not limited to: rock, pop, alternative, ballads, symphony, classical, techno, some hard rock, and anything else with a great feel to it. I constantly have the unrelenting itch to go to the movies, one that I only scratch about a fourth of the time. I love to sit and enjoy beautiful scenery and someday hope to travel the world. I am always looking for that unexpected source of inspiration that you never see coming. You can follow me on Twitter at my link text
