Fields of these glorious stemmed beauties are sure to enchant a passerby. Scarlet with blood and dark with passion Poppies seem to stand with a sense of mystery. With each petal they beckon you to enter a magical world— One of secrecy and seduction, and this world is living within you like a small bird trapped in a cage. Alliteration and simile Each human be him human or vicious, is hiding a world of enchantment. This world is so full of life—yet it is sure to put you to sleep. And it will leave you wondering what was real and what a dream With the help of the obscure poppy this world may be unlocked— But do you want it unlocked? - Art and Poem byBridget Falenski
