marrying the CEO

aloha Brudberg. i believe this is called “Rock Crop” (or it may be called rockcrop) i could be wrong but it’s a lot like what i used to see around where i grew up and i’ve always liked it as well as the name i knew it by.
a way cool writing/poem for this plant—whether it is Rock Crop or not. aloha.
I had to check that one, and it is indeed goldmoss rockcrop 🙂 In Swedish it’s fetknopp which you can also call a fat person. 🙂
interesting. i like that this little plant get’s most of it’s nourishment from stone—indeed a plump little plant when ever i saw it. thanks for checking up on it. aloha.
what a delightful twist in the tale.
Love what you saw from this and your comparison.

Wow … what a way to say it all !!!
Excellent analogy with an almost theatrical surprise.
Lovely little poem for a beautiful plant in unlikely habitat.
I cam looking for your origami haiku. Did you post the wrong link?
Oh no, I’m sorry
This is the classic American love story. “Beauty queen from trailer park marrying the CEO.”;-)
Brilliant take
Thank you 🙂
