Poppies for remembrance too. When I was young veterans still gave out paper poppies on what used to be Armistice day. The small things do indeed count. Lovely flower, lovely photo.
The little things are really the big things, and poppies are beautiful. Just there by the side of the street, and you stopped to admire it. That’s a big thing for sure.
Yes, it is often the small things one comes upon that makes one’s day. Mr. Bowie says finding a catnip plant in bloom makes his day. 🙂 The Cats of Salmon Brook Farms send their warmest regards to the Mr. Bowie, the Great Grey Hunter.
Ahhhhhhhh. Wonderful.
Thank you, Bugs!

Thank you, Angela.
In Belgium, poppies have become a symbol of remembrance of soldiers who have died during wartime (WW 1) in Flanders.
Poppies are so cheery……!

They are one of my favourite flowers…

So true! I took my time to enjoy that moment yesterday…
What a pretty poppy.
Thanks Timothy!

Thank you, Lavinia. Mr. Bowie asked me to send his greetings and hugs to the Cats of Salmon Farms! Catnip for everyone…
Wow how beautiful! I’ve never seen them in the ground (so to speak). Ellie
Thank you, Ellie! Don’t forget to look down, once in a while… 😉
Beautiful! I have trouble growing them in my garden so I am jealous 🙂
Guess we’re lucky, you can find the poppies everywhere in our village…
PS: you can always sing the Nick Cave song, ‘Where The Wild Poppies Grow’… 🙂
Haha, yes 🙂 and maybe that will help them grow in my garden too!
You can always give it a try… And maybe the neighbours will enjoy your singing…!! 🙂
Just gorgeous .. And it is the little things! How is that wonderful cat 🙂
So true… Little Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
Lovely – the human just loves poppies-
These are one of my favourite flowers too…
The human saw a set of dishes yesterday with bright red poppies all over them and she fell in love – but she didn’t buy them (yet)…
“yet”…!! Ha ha ha…
Hehehe 😸
poppy seeds on dark chocolate, might give it a try?
You always put these strange ideas in my head, Cornelia… 😉
Oh, that’s good 🙂
I share your poppy love. ❤
