It is too hot for poppies here in south Texas. When I was a child, I lived in the northeast U.S. and my Mother had a poppy garden. It makes me sigh to see one. I love the Haiku and the photo today. BV

Great softness and colour contrast. It´s not the kind of colour combination poppies have here.
J. Scott Coile04-Oct-2012 17:21
Now that is a beauty with the white fringe.
