Poppy and Poem



Poppy






Poem
(Haiku)


Pollen-heavy 
purple stained poppy,
what, no bees?





Look for more Saturday Snapshots at Alyce's blog : At Home With Books

And more haiku at : Haiku Heights where I am linking a poem a day(hopefully) during the month of September.  This will be linked for September 2.   The challenge is 'color.' Check it out!
