Nature Study : Tree

I took this photo of a "lightning blackened" tree at a biking trail . In fact there were many trees there that were struck by lightning. Must be a scary place to be in during a thunderstorm, huh?

Tree #1

Defiant in defeat
wounded limbs stab sky, taunting
in soundless language
