Poppies for my daughter

I do like this - the imagery is excellent;)

Many thanks Juniperus, for reading and commenting.

What a moving poem coral and you painted such a
beautiful picture. Lovely words.

Jenny.

Well done kid! A picture is worth more than a thousand words so they say.

Thank you so much Jenny xx

Thanks Geoff - what a palaver doing the attachment! Easy when you know how. xx

I can't do links and attachments seashore but I will check this one out. The poem is stand alone good and the stumble into the shell hole line is wonderful. Well done. :-)

Thanks as ever FB for reading and for the feedback. Anytime you want to add an attachment you know where I am!

Thanks eds for cherry - it's the first time I've attempted a re-write so it's especially welcome.

Fabulous, Coral and the picture of those wonderful poppies completes it beautifully;-)

Tina ;-)

loved the painting- water colour- so vivid- and the poem was a cherry worth or rather the poppy worth- beautiful- your daughter must be proud of you!

Yes Coral,so much
is written into this
lovely poem. Of the poppies.
This re-minds me of the picture,
by 'Monet' and child and mum running through
the poppy fields. Paper mentioned they are
bringing it back. Quite often markets can pick
on up £5. I got one once.
And now you have the cherries!
well done. Good see your writing.

Thanks so much for the lovely comment Tina. x

Pia - really appreciate your words and sentiments so thank you. x

Hi Julie - good of you to drop by and leave a comment. Yes I have always loved that Monet painting too! x

I remember the first one, but I can't tell what you've changed, still just stunning.

Thanks for remembering, shoe and for the positive feedback. I changed quite a lot actually, I think the first attempt was a bit messy so I pared this one right back but I'm still never sure when something is working or not...

A very well constructed and moving poem, beautifully enhanced by the painting. Good work seashore!

Very many thanks, Kilb50.

Truly moving and beautifully written, seashore, and perfectly topical, even though I’m late commenting. I feel your pain. Brilliant.

Really appreciate your lovely comment - thanks sue.

Now I realise how annoying it is to have to scroll through so many comments to get to post one.

Excellent poetry; thoroughly deserving.

Sorry about that scratch - but thanks for persevering and for the very welcome feedback.

Vivid- much enjoyed x

Many thanks SC x

Beautiful work of art, and well done on managing the attachment! A beautiful poem too. Lucky daughter to have such a talented Mum.

Maybe a lucky Mum also...many thanks OTT.

If your daughter is as talented as you then its a very lucky family.

Thanks for reading this oldpesky, also for the lovely comment. I've always considered my daughter to be a better writer than I am - I'm really the painter in the family.

Anyway I much appreciate you dropping by, especially as I know you're predominantly a prose man.

Wonderfully written! You are indeed very talented. A well deserved cherry!

Many many thanks cynthiae77!
