Two Poppies


out in the meadow
near a tree stump
towards the beginning of summer
poppies appear

two lovely poppies dancing in the breeze
bathing in sunlight
near the forest trees
~

such beauty

  4. Hello Tammie! Look at the details of this flower. The petals look crinkly they almost look like Jaoanese crepe paper.

  10. They are perfect! Poppy is a cosmic flower, they say... One of my favourite. But I haven't seen exactly that kind - so rich in red and as if keeping secrets... Lovely photos, Tammie!

  25. The other day after walking we went to a garden centre for tea and scones. A large potted money plant was so perfect that we all thought it was artificial. We were wrong
    Just like your poppies, nature itself can produce perfection.
    Wonderful !

  26. I love poppies so much..they seem to be harder to find here lately. Maybe I am just not looking in the right places!

  28. The cadence of your poem helps to make the poppies dance, Tammie! Such vivid (and frilly) performers.

    Poppies ...
    I like ... they're wild, they grow in unexpected places ... adorn the environment ... and the wind dances with them ...
    What beauty there is here ...
    Tammie kisses!
