Outshouting the storm

An entry for the Haiku Club 2015 January Renga Tree.
2015 January Renga Tree: Open!It is a Japanese custom to write with a writing brush on the second day of the new year.  Join the Haiku Club as we celebrate this custom with a Renga Tree.  A Renga Tree is an open form of renga in which anyone may post a response to any previously posted response.  The result is a branching "tree" of poems beginning with a single "seed". 
Here is a Renga Tree stamp to include in your journal or deviation comments.
Seed
     百福の始るふいご始哉
     hyakufuku no hajimeru fuigo hajime kana
     starting the New Year's luck
     first stoke
     of the fire
         —
 
My response to this haiku by saiun
Renga Tree - Vertigo   colorful lights
wind around a giant fir
   swaying in the gale
