Poppies @ Tower Hill

Mary Coleridge (1861-1907):
No Newspapers
Where, to me, is the loss
Of the scenes they saw — of the sounds they heard;
A butterfly flits across,
Or a bird;
The moss is growing on the wall,
I heard the leaf of the poppy fall.

Poppy falls

Apparently there had been a reprieve to the ceramic poppies at the Tower Hill. Due to extreme public demand, some of the poppies will stay put for public viewing at the tower until the end of the month.
Get visiting. It was so worth it. It was so amazing a sea of blood at the tower.
It couldn’t really be left permanent at the tower because sooner or later, the grass/weeds will engulfed the poppies plus the ceramics are not made to withstand extreme weather condition. We are now heading towards winter.
