The "milk of the poppy" refers to a milky substance found in the unripe seed capsules of the opium poppy, Papver somniferum. It has been used medicinally for over 5,000 years.
Red poppy flowers represent consolation, remembrance and death. Since ancient times, poppies placed on tombstones represent eternal sleep.
