No one knew that the churned up soil of World War I battlefields in France and Belgium would create the perfect conditions for a bumper crop of wild red poppies: breathtaking, horrifying, unforgettable. The red poppy was immortalized "Lest we forget" Then we forgot... "Red poppies were for Flanders Fields, White poppies say that war must cease, Now purple poppies blossom forth For Pangaiamic Peace..."
This is the Santa Cruz City Park Peace Pole planted by WomenRise for Global Peace. This year the inscription plate was replaced (now should last a lifetime).

threshold transitions; passing through portals... life, laughter, liberty of spirit.... and happiness ensues.
