Tulip growing out of a crack- photo by Marilyn Glover
Crack cowered bloomlet
springs up for enlightenment
my inner resource

I saw this tulip growing out of a crevice this morning in my community garden and became inspired to write a haiku for L.C. Shafer's Dollar Challenge prompt: Life Finds a Way.
The lesson: no matter what happens, how down in the dumps one's situation may feel, life always finds a way.
Often, it's our inner resources that lead us out of darkness into the light. Find your loophole, find your way.
Thanks for reading!

This tickles the tongue so beautifully! Had to read it out loud because it was begging for it! Fantastic haiku! And a lovely photo too!
They say there's always a loophole one just has to find it. Good job.
This is perfect for that challenge! Also, may I know what is bloomlet? I Googled it and clothing started to appear, lol
