Note: If Japanese text appears within the illustration, its meaning is the same as Aqua's droplet poem. Aqua is a water spirit.

🌷Anemone flaccida's Dewdrop Poem of the Twin-flower “Blooming Together”
by Aqua

Two whites on one stem.

Listening to the wind's whisper,
they bloom, gently leaning together.

Which bloomed first?
Which swayed first?
Such things no longer matter.

Only,
“Because you are here, I can bloom too”

It seems to say,
a quiet dialogue in the spring forest.

Dewdrop primrose.
It is the flower's form saying you are not alone.

Drops of friendship and cooperation,
bloom side by side again today.

💧Aqua Afterword
One stem, two flowers.
One thought, two drops.
I tried to wrap the image of the twinflower in a poem and title that gently embrace it💧🌸

Anemone flaccida

Anemone flaccida or nirin-sou(scientific name: Anemone flaccida) is a cold-resistant perennial herb (lodging plant) in the family, Ranunculaceae, native to Japan and China.
In spring, it forms large colonies on the forest floor and forest margins in low mountains. Ichirin-sou is a monocarpic plant with a single flower coat.
The rhizomatous leaves are deeply lobed and the stem leaves have no petioles.
One to three stems are produced from the rhizomatous leaves, and two or more flower stalks are produced from each stalk. The name of the flower is derived from the fact that there are two or more flowers on each stem. The whole plant, including the flowers, leaves, and stems, is edible, and can be eaten as a dipping sauce. The rhizome is used in Chinese herbal medicine to treat pains such as rheumatism, etc. There is also the Ichirin-sou (one flower on one stem). Both have similar leaves and flowers, but Ichirinsou's flowers are twice as large as those of Nirin-sou.
