POPPIE DANCER

Welcome to my domain. The Kingdom Of Poppy Fields where I reign supreme. For I am the self appointed, continuously knighted Majesty of the realm, where the beautiful red, black eyed poppies live in harmony and tranquility.

It is my good fortune to be able to meander my treasured land on a daily basis, complimenting my subjects on their grace and beauty, as they sway in time with the elements of nature. Do not be misled by the delicacy of my charges for they may give the appearance of fragility to the naked eye but within their stamen of darkness lies an explosive element known as opium.

This powerful, mind bending substance is banned by society, yet look back in time and testament to the many medicinal qualities "the dark seeds of the poppy" can tell many a tale of culture and folklore, miracle cures and mayhem. Criminal elements cast a stain on the beauty of poppy yet these precious flowers still stand tall in their own right as one of natures jewels in the crown.

RED ... Is for Redemption of all things possible. Possibilities are endless as the rich red flowers blossom and swathe our fields with the glory of time and a long lasting memorial to centuries gone by and countless lives lost in the tragedy of too many wars.
