[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 549087, member: 22"]Can't help with the item. Every time I hear of the Willow pattern it reminds me of my deceased mother. She recited it many times and no one really knows why. [B] Two birds flying high, A Chinese vessel, sailing by. A bridge with three men, sometimes four, A willow tree, hanging o'er. A Chinese temple, there it stands, Built upon the river sands. An apple tree, with apples on, A crooked fence to end my song.[/B] I'm sure she would laugh and love the fact that 7 years after her death,one of her great grandchildren would be named Willow.[/QUOTE]
