Birds and Bees

21st February 2012 By Sashi Prabhu (zeauoxian) (Couplet) Hey mum and dad please do not lowly hum or keep mum, When by your little one asked “where do babies come from?” Narrated over and over this metaphorical tale, Many scoff to tell, be it female or adult male. Birds are like men and fly as they please, Bees are like women, dedicated to their queen, to her whims appease. Bees sit on and pollinate the flowers, By, buzzing around many and over few hovers. The birds spread the “seed”, These to the “gen next” they lead. This is about birds and bees a short verse, On a topic, proscribed and taboo which parents surely must never be averse
