13 February 2011: Red Poppy


13FEB2011, originally uploaded by blueathena7.

I love this little wooden flower. It came as a decorative gift with a tin of peanut brittle from Kentucky two Christmases ago. What a treat to not only get the beloved brittle treat, but to also be greeted by a colorful red Gerber daisy I don't have to water or worry about. I think about a few coffee shop friends and memories when I spy this flower peering from a vase in my living room, winter or summer.

The poet's darling. ~William Wordsworth, "To the Daisy"
