ominous windstorm circles
courage triumphs still

Honestly, all the pictures that I've seen in your poems are amazingly photographed and artful! And so enchanting, too. This one is just the same, and it reflects the poem itself :)

Wisdom placed the the right word "ancient" on its proper seat. So the writing is universal. Very nice.

I like your choice for the picture. Silhouetted trees are so striking. Excellent haiku. This tree must have been through a lot of storms to be ancient.
