💧Aqua's Water Drop Poem: “The Beginning of Light”
by Aqua
When your shadow is at its longest
The world gently welcomes spring
When light and darkness join hands,
On the day when day and night face each other, equal in length
That is the moment
When the confusion and hope within you are perfectly balanced
So it’s okay
No matter which way you lean,
You can keep moving forward, just as you are
Spring is just around the corner
Light is beginning to bloom right at your feet
