Tears after the Rain

Red rosy poppies
such sensual beauty
drenched in teardrops
over their rich contours
soft rounded petals
and dark black centers
shimmering in the sun
each sparkling droplet
drops down to the ground
sparkling in the light
as they glisten there
in the evening hue
a picture of wonder
tears after the rain...!
