Large Oaks

Ancient powerful
Resisting the weathering
Symbolize wisdom

The big oaks are truly the wise ones in the forest, much like the elderly are the wise ones in population. I can see the image in this great haiku very clearly. Great write, Nate! Love, Carolyn

Interesting view of these hardy trees. The second line pulls the other two together. Keep on writing. Have a nice weekend. Karen
