the gift that keeps on giving

The poppies under the redbud tree out front are blooming. I love their very delicate stem, that bud that hangs there so heavy, then one day, like magic they open.

This year I have more deep red and fewer pink. But the one below is a stunner. 

I am always happy when I see these coming up.  Over the years, the birds have spread them around to the back and side as well. A pop of red is welcome in any location in my flower beds.  These poppies are the gift that keeps on giving. I think of you every single year when they bloom Jeanette. With gratitude.
