In the End Poppies United Us
Written by Kiernan Antares
One day I painted poppies
a field rich in hues
my heart did soar on flights
of fancy
purple yellow green and blue.
This painting hangs anchored
wide deep and high
prominent in our home
little did I realize then
the import pressing homage to hang ‘till I die.
These stellar blessings alight
in eyes that which to see
the happy stance
it does burn bright
a father daughter window for all eternity.
