18011 - Power of the poppy flower

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou, Evi Charitidou

The power of the poppy flower
can’t be seen by the stem
but by the color
this is why you have to endure
when you see the red
since it’s its blood
because generosity
not only does it give what it has
but what it is
since it already knows
from its birth
whatever it does until its end
so if you can see
the value and glory
you will realize
that the need changes
reality
and you should be glad
because you live with it
at the same era.
