Shimotsukeso's Water Drop Poem: “Mist-Like Flower Clusters”

Peach-colored droplets spreading softly like mist
Gently unfurling when touched by a drop of water
Scattering a pale light along the summer mountain path

🌼💧 The Japanese spiraea is a flower that looks like “water mist”
Its slender flower clusters spread out softly and fluffily,
looking just like mist that’s gently splashed with light.
It was a flower that paired perfectly with my water droplet poem.
