IN THE GARDEN
There was once
A bee
Who as it buzzed
Around
Saw a flower...
It felt instant
Joy and attraction
And so decided
To say hello...
It buzzed about
Singing the "Bee song"
Until the bloom
Took notice
And the two
Began a friendship!
The Bee came
Ever so often
And the petaled
One
Its company enjoyed...
The garden was alive
Wirh the sound
Of their chatter
And laugh...
All the other
Greens and trees
Fumed...
They liked not
The disturbance of
Their peace...
The flower and
The Bee
Their friendship, continued!
It all went
Smooth
Until one day
The Flower spied
The Bee drinking
In another blosson's
Company...
When confronted
The Bee denied
But the truth
Showed in the
Faltered buzzing...
The Bee was a
Liar!
Angry with the
Beautiful bloom
It decided to
Sting...
Big mistake
This turned out
To be...
For we all
Know
What happens when
A bee stings...
Another moment
It does not live...
And so the Bee
Was gone
Peace returned
To the garden...
The flower bloomed
And laughed and lived
Butterflies and birds
Were its friends
And not any longer
Bees...!
