Resourcefulness

MacGyver always finds a way

When no way can be found,

And Kirk and Spock can

Always organize a workaround.

 

But these are the exceptions,

As most must sad confess

To falling somewhat short

When measuring resourcefulness.

 

Whether be by trick or gimmick

Tactic or design,

Finding means to glean a scheme

Can tax the brightest mind.

 

But makeshift measures often form

A brilliant strategy when

Imagination forays 

To unmask the mystery.

 

So often the resourceful mind

Contrives the clear solution,

To find the root and leads it

To a logical conclusion.
