a mist swells through fog
trees drink water from above
worn trails lie empty

oooh, the photo and the poem make me think of when I'm walking in the woods of the Oregon Trail

so much has been seen
by the eyes of the forest
yet the trail appears empty
surely, in truth,
it is full
sated with history

Well done!

There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar.

Julian~
Your lovely inspirational Haiku is greatly enjoyed.

Lovely, looks like the paths in the woods in my backyard.
