Storm - A River of Stones

pink bolts of lightning
drenching rain pelting the ground
fragile poppy stands firm

  6. This is what we call a Welsh Poppy in the UK. What do you call it? I love the yellow and the papery skin of the petals. I used to have one that appeared every year in my last house... pushing up between two slabs of stone.
