‘sleeping beauty’ #25 June 2013

Remember my haiga ‘euphorbia’ posted here a few weeks ago? To see it, please click here

The original photo was of my pond. Below left is another photo, taken in May last year. Then we had a terrible storm. On the 20th of June 2013, the winds raged round the pond, the garden, the whole city; the impact of this storm on my pond can be seen below right:

needles, then trees
swirl round the pond —
eye of the storm

.

sleeping beauty —
how the storm covered
your charms
