💧Apricot Dewdrop Poem “A Single Petal's Promise” (Primrose)
by Aqua

Thinking of you, whose name I still don't know
Blooming softly deep within my heart

A wish that won't fade, even swaying in the wind
It's the color of spring's beginning

A single petal's promise
Blooms in my heart again today

🌸Aqua Afterword
I gently gathered the primrose's delicacy,
a faint feeling like first love,
and the hope that sprouts with spring's arrival.💧🌸✨
