dressed in a ballerina tutu of poppy, said Princess Haiku, the dream

I love the otherworldly beauty of poppies, said Princess Haiku and have ordered a few packets from the poppy shop. They require very little attention compared to other rare flowers and decided to give them a try.



I have tried to germinate blue poppies in the past unsuccessfully and found this helpful information which is encouraging me to try again.




Poppy Dreams are made of angel wings.

what is left of the flower, said Princess Haiku

Raindrops from a dark cloud drenched the poppies.
"Are these your tears or mine?" Princess Haiku asked.
A yellow flower's transparent face turned from the sky.


What is left of the flower
reaches to the dark
mouth of the rain.
Kisses eternity as petals
shredded become eternal.
