Oh, battered sentry
Stand strong, ever vigilant
Over your valley

Glad to see you providing credit to the photographer; we've recently had some folks not too pleased that we borrowed their photographs without permission.  Copyright issues and all.

But the poem and the picture do go very well together, Edder.  Thanks!

i echo what has been said..it really seems like the haiku has been custom-made for this picture and no other haiku can fit...

~Smiles brightly~ I've always loved this one, and the picture you chose is extraordinary! ~Big hugs!~

Picture and poem go so nicely together. Great job.

Make your words as sweet as honey, someday you may have to eat them.
