A New Flower

The Precept: Nature's Haiku contest

                                                         a tear from Heaven.
                                              drops and splashes on the ground.
                                                         a new flower grows.

I really like the different direction you took with yours, away from the whirlpool and focusing on a flower grown from water (a tear!)
