Thank you so much for the lovely things you said.
You know it means the world to me ❤️

It's a kinda bittersweet poem, this one. I found it meloncolic in many places but was also warmed by the strange comfort you speak of, regarding picking poppies & becoming 'found'. It's a really excellent write. 😊

Thank you so much. 😊

You seem to compact a lot of meaning in not only the observant and definitive words you use, but also the emotional standpoint in transition, with the words you use.  The story is well-characterized with visual elements to imagine, as well.  It directs a course of atmosphere, as I'm sure you would've intended.  Akin to you, it holds its own, in originality, and perhaps potential to be built upon further.  The words and topic are "blooming" to be discovered in context and interpretation.  Each line gradually takes on more meaning, as it unfolds, I can actually see progress and growth, in some ways.  You do great with grouping words together to give relative morality and meaning.  I like how you come back to the representation of the poppy and give it a "chilling" meaning.  Ha-ha.  Like winter's sacrifice.  The whole thing seems to carry "seasonal" emotion and moral compass, depicted throughout the body of work.  It could be relative from many standpoints, depending how one is disposed, or chooses to receive what is here.  Aesthetical nature of such can elicit response, whether particularly jubilant, or somewhat easy going.  It seems more positive than negative.  Anyway, hope this helps.  See you around.

Thank you a million for your feedback. It makes me understand the take away from the poem better than I ever could on my own. It was meant to be positive except I like to throw in a touch of morbid, lol.
I'm very hard on myself, sometimes I feel no one will take away anything from something I post. Thank you for making me feel confident in myself.
Have a great day!!
