But actually, they are a tiny drop of water; a blessing of nature, kissed by sunshine and exaggerated by bard's quill.
They too mistake themselves as a pearl,
But when Zephyr visits, leaf quivers as aspen, dew falls from the leaf;
Turns into dust, realizes this delicate beauty is nothing but a futile vanity.
