💜💧 A Dorop Poem for the Shion
by Aqua
Plop…
The pale purple flowers
gently sway beneath the autumn sky.
Unbroken even by the wind,
standing tall and straight
amidst the stillness—
that very image is the embodiment of gentle strength.
Shion is
a flower of autumn’s longing,
blooming as if gazing into the distance.
