And the wrens have returned and they're nesting
In the hollow of that oak where his heart once had been
And he lifts up his arms in a blessing for being born again

A wonderful photo of a very old but majestic tree and a very appropriate poem, thanks for the post

The two sides of the tree help create a frame within a frame.

It's quite the sight! Thanks for sharing.

The legs are missing, otherwise a nice template for an Ent

Thanks for sharing.

Love the symmetry in the photo

I'd have titled this "Competing Crowns" as having lost the central trunk, the two sides are now duking it out for superiority.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments.

I've been by this tree almost every summer for the past several years. It's majestic (the photo doesn't do it justice). Every time I go there...I wonder if it will still be standing.
