💧Kan-hizakura's Blossom Waterdrop Poem “Winter Bonfire”
by Aqua

On a morning when the cold wind
still hesitates to let spring arrive.

At the tip of its branch,
a single crimson droplet glows.

It's as if
a tiny bonfire bloomed
at winter's end.

As if to warm a frozen heart,
quietly, yet surely,
it announces spring's approach.

“It's coming soon,”
Whispering softly,
the flower swaying in the wind
gently knocks on the door of the season.💗🌸💧🌿

💧A Word from the Dewdrop
The Kanhi Cherry is like a “forerunner dewdrop” announcing spring's beginning.
Amidst the still-biting wind, its form blooming earlier than any other,
