very beautiful image...I
have always wondered
at the tenacity of plants,
particularly those small
green shoots that you
see sprouting out of
dry stone walls...

Thanks a lot, dartford! I'm always affected, too, by those brave and frugal plants which grow and live under such challenging circumstances. They absolutely deserve a haiku of their own!
You wrote 'sprouting out of'. Is 'from' correct, too?

Thank you, Liz (may I call you Liz?)! I saw them in the Alps while taking photos. I admire them a lot and so it was inevitable to try another haiku on the tiny fellows :-).

Always grateful for your great comments, J.! My namesake would probably turn over in her grave *chuckle* if she knew! If only I had known that haikus would become my "obsession" I'd have named myself differently on DUP. For sure! I adore that female haiku mistress and wouldn't have dared to steal her name!

Thank you, dear Poe! Yes, it mates since the pic was first and the haiku the written pendant. At least I hoped it to be :-).

Thank you, Carlene! For liking poem and pic. Yes, it's one of my photos from our tour to the Swiss Alps. I love these precious little flowers :-).

I only wonder how they're able to cling to pure rock. But they do! Amazing! Nature is amazing.
