The Birth of a Poppy

Following on from yesterday's poppy in full bloom. I went out to the garden this morning, after a recent shower of rain and found this poppy about to burst into full bloom. I just loved the curled up petals about to burst open.

With all abstract photos this month, at first sight the drops looked like eyes and then I saw a mouth eating something orange. 😀
