🔴✨ Birth Poem for Sane-kazura: “Red That Clings”


Poem by Aqua

The red berries are glossy,
just like tiny jewels.
The vines stretch out smoothly,
living as if clinging to the trees.

“It’s okay to live by clinging to someone,”
this autumn vine gently teaches us.

Sane-kazura is not a “strangler plant” that wraps around and kills its host, like the banyan and akou trees of the fig genus in the mulberry family, or the rata of the myrtle family.
It wraps around its host loosely, so it never causes it to wither.
