Flower in the driveway crack,
I leave you there, bravely blooming;—
Weed or no, I'll stay my hand,
Little flower — so small, and yet so grand
A show of color on the pavement black,
Steadfast and unassuming.

Thanks, Lynn. I had heard those other names, but had no referent for them. Which led to a little confusion, as this plant looks more like a succulent than like a moss.
