Poppies in a Pink Pewter Pot

Poppies abound here in the late spring. The pot is real, in my studio. I found it and bought it at a vide grenier. Poppies are always symbolic. In British minds, often they speak of death, associated with the first world war. Not so here in France, where people wear blue flowers in memory of those who dies in the Great War. Here in France they are more symbolic of life and spring.
