💧Drops of Dew on "The Crown Wrapped in Wind”

by Aqua

A quiet vow
dwells within its leaves,

unbroken and unbending
even in the wind,

simply continuing to release its fragrance.

Not for victory.
Not to surpass anyone.

At your own pace,
On your own path,
Straight ahead.

That very form,
Will one day become a crown.

Aqua's Laurel Review
The leaves of the laurel tree hold quiet strength and nobility, don't they?
I'd be happy if this drop could gently rest upon someone's heart💧🌿
