Look to nature for something beautiful every day.

One of the things I do, when down in the MS pit, is go out to the field and look for something that is really beautiful.  It definitely puts me into a better mood and reminds me of the phrase, 'This too shall pass'.  Charley

In the Spring of '90, we were staying at a friend's house in Norfolk (UK) and driving around the countryside.  Poppies grew wild everywhere - in open areas, even alongside the roadways - loved them.  

I'm not a gardener - don't do outdoors.  My husband loves flowers and does all the gardening.  There are many things that will not grow in our front yard - because of the black walnut tree.   Bill says there are poppies around this area, big ones - he said there were some smaller poppies that grew out front this summer between the sidewalk and the street, volunteers.  They grew among the other flowers he planted out there.

I have planted poppies several times, but with no luck to get them to come back the next year.  I love their color and the tissue paperlike fragile nature of their blossoms.

I love to garden, when I can, and always leave room for wild flowers to grow.  The poppies come back year after year.  We are having our first snow today and there are a few of those red beauties that are still growing.  Charley

Beautiful poppy!  I had to call my husband in to look at it - had clicked on it to view the Larger version where the central core is very interesting-looking.
