Hello Simonetta, the red poppies are very beautiful. Your English is fine, we can understand what you mean. It is fun to share with someone in Italy.
Best Wishes from Alison in New Zealand.

Oh Simonetta - we used to live in Northern France which is part of Flanders Fields which saw such intensive action during both World Wars. We were only there for 6 months and came back to the UK at around this time of year. Your fabulous poppy pictures brought back some very poignant memories of the time we were moving back against our wishes - thanks for sharing them - I've been thinking of doing a shadow applique quilt with poppies based on the WW1 war poem "In Flanders Fields" - maybe this will give me the impetus to play with the idea a little more
