A sea of poppies

I am so much enjoying all the fields of poppies again. Each year I get equally excited when they appear. Today I pulled over on a nice long straight bit of road and as I walked along the verge an oncoming driver nodded his head at me in that 'tutting' sort of way as if I was doing something very hazardous. Perhaps he knew that he didn't have time to gaze upon the colourful masterpiece and was a bit vexed.
