No - there's nothing dramatic about these poppies - it's just great to see them again. The drama took place in the front yard, where there was another great flowering of The Poet's Wife - a beautiful pale deep yellow rose. That is - it was flowering yesterday evening, and sometime during today, all the blooms on this new bush had disappeared. Gone. Apparently cut. Someone would have had to have hopped over a low-ish fence to get them. It's hard not to take this personally, when there are plenty of extravagantly blooming rosebushes all over the neighborhood, whereas our bush was just two weeks old, and low, and had just these four or five pretty blooms.
