Default I love my Poppies!

This year my Poppies have had such a wonderful showing, even with all the rain! Just thought I'd share a little collage I made up of a few photos and a quote by John Keats:

"Through the dancing poppies stole; A breeze most softly lulling to my soul

Enjoy!

I 'love' poppies. I have those same light pink ones in my garden. To me, it looks like the Creator took his 1" wide paint brush and stroked a few brushes from the center out, on the inside of the flower.
