I wrote this in 1991 - not a very comfortable form for me.  Don't know where this one came from.

The flower of hope blooms in the darkest crevice even in winter.

Very well put and very profound, especially for the limited form. Nice. If you were a movie, I think, the tag wouldn't be "Run Forrest Run", it would be "Read Beverly Read" 80)...pat

Pat, so glad you liked this one. I wrote it a long time ago when my son and I were playing around with Haiku. Thanks. Beverly
