Blue Skies and Poppies

I love looking at poppies up close. They're so fragile, it's like you wonder how they survive in the harsh environment of the desert.  That's the reason that there aren't many years like this.  If it gets too hot once they bloom they die.  There have been many years when I could only find a plant or two.  The poppies are like me, they don't like the heat!


"If you've never been thrilled to the very edges of your soul by a flower in spring bloom, maybe your soul has never been in bloom."  ~Audra Foveo
