What a wonderful response on the haiku by Shiki … that photo makes the feeling of the departed soul so much stronger … awesome.

I am still amazed at all the cacti I saw that were over 100 years old or more at the park we visited in AZ last year!

Departed soul but still maintaining a beautiful presence in the landscape.
