Welsh Poppy

Welsh Poppy

The life story of a Welsh Poppy!
Background and textures include (1) raindrops on window pane, (2) car sun/roof light window and (3) swiss roll baking tray.
I am not very good with verse/poems so please be kind!

Dreaming dreams
Winds blow…
We bend shimmering with grace.
Buzzing bees
Shimmy through stamens…
brushing anthers showering pollen.
Yellow
Petals fall silently softly gently
littering the ground…
New beauty emerges
A summer crown…
Soon black seeds fall like rain
We dream the future.

Some of the poppies before I cut them out – this time I only used the magicwand and eraser.
