A lovely haiku, my friend! Congratulations on taking a first place in the contest. (The photo's tree looks much like one at nearby Tomoka State Park.) Hugs, Carolyn

I can clearly make out the contrast between gnarled, twisted branches and the drifting songs of birds, Constance...and yet they compliment each other. Regards // paul
