fractured wood whispers

Nicely captured. It is the scars that lend trees, and people, character.

Great image and beautiful haiku. All the Best dear Sara. Please read the instructions. If it is for Brian's contest, don't put the title.

Very nice. I work a lot with wood, helping my wife with her sculptures. Always keeping in mind, that these beautiful, textured miracles where once alive.
