Sweet Dream

During the Wintertime, the seeds of the poppy flowers rest under the ground. The poppy fairy stays with them during the winter and helps them to remember the time of spring, summer and autumn. She reads stories to the seeds about the first rain in the spring, the growing and blooming, the visits of bees and butterflies in the summer. She tells them of the magical sound they will sing in the autumn when the wind shakes their seedpods full of seeds. Falling back to earth with the quiet sigh of the earth’s breath.
