Summer Dance
I love the dense colour of our Oriental poppies and the way they move together so gracefully in the early summer breeze.
But the dance doesn’t last long: after what seems like just a few days, each stem in turn topples over, its flower replaced by a drying seed head.
By fall even the ferny foliage disappears, leaving no trace of the dancers – their energy hidden underground to await another summer.
