Postcards from Paradise: The Purloined Poppies

Sometimes one cannot resist a certain kind of beauty,
Passion overcomes all sense of propriety
and paint begins to splash merrily all about.


A tale had been told of lost friends,
and all of that story rang true
in a place within my own heart.
I chose not to lose
that shared story.
So,
 I captured these purloined poppies
 from dear Rebecca
to share as my offering
for Postcards from Paradise.
Please visit this amazing site for even more wonder from Paradise.

from your hands and vision, poppies from our garden!

kathleen thank you. it truly touches me that you spent time creating such beauty as a response to a story i felt so compelled to share. that is the beauty of the blog world. we are all here to lift each other up, nurture each other by sharing, and reflect the light of truly seeing and being seen.

i am so profoundly moved by your beauty and acknowledgement.

Beautiful! I recently found out that Rebecca lives in Prescott, AZ and taught at yavapai College, where I was once a counselor--small world.

Kathleen,
How deeply thoughtful. And these poppies, besides being a lovely tribute are more beautiful than anything Monet himself could have done. They are in a word, resplendent. Thank you for sharing such a graceful crush of color with us. Well done!
xo,
Noelle

Purloined Poppies is beautiful and graceful. I really like the closeup so I can imagine the brush strokes and the different colours on your palette. Makes me want to go romp in the fields.
