Ode To The Bees

Soft buzzes of well-mannered bees
Their stingers piercing and sharp
Morals of faint desire.
Sweet, soft
Small, scintillating.
Their radiance flying by yet people unable to see.
Meals consisting of pollen and sappy fruit juice.
Calling the flowers and bringing forth colour and life.
The melodists of the trees and the grass.
Their hives full of promise and hope.
Little wings all doing their jobs
a delightful bliss of chaos.
Bold, gleeful
In a tiny world full of euphoria,
bees all doing their jobs.
