💛✨ A “Water Drop Poem” for September 9’s birth flower, Ominaeshi: “Faint Autumn Light”
by Aqua

Tiny yellow flowers cluster together,
as if gently bundling up the light of autumn.
Ominaeshi is
a flower that’s unassuming yet has a strong presence.

Its scent is slightly sweet,
and it drifts softly on the breeze.
It’s a flower that seems to whisper softly,
“Quiet beauty is nice, too.”

Its floral meanings are “deep love” and “kindness.”
