Paul, To some old age brings wisdom, most are slower to react to situations with a better outcome, and I could go on. Old age can bring a whole lot of bad, but not all elderly are affected so. Thanks for dropping by with congrats. Sara

Thank you, Alexis. Sometimes it is not so easy finding a picture that makes the scene I have seen or the one in my mind's eye. Sara

Indeed, an oak is quite cold and uninviting during the winter. Brrrr! Excellent imagery!!

Intriguing photo-poem combo here, Sarah. It sets me wondering if the roots stretching below the ground match the tangled branches above. ~ Gershon

Gershon, I am sure they do go out and deep for a good bit. The root system will usually be as wide reaching as the limbs, so they say. I appreciate the thoughtful comment. Sara
