Bumble Bee Stings and Singing

Bumble Bee Stings And Singing Bee sting Bumble is here With fear Fearsome Generating Real pain Painful Targeting you To run Running Faster on wind To wait Waiting Then get stung Get wet Wetter In water sink Hold breath Breathless For bee to leave Then pray Praying Bee goes away Then rise Rising To see it gone Be calm Calmer Than the soft wind Then sing Singing Is better than Bee stings Created on 12/01/14 for- "Mussetle Train" Poetry Contest 2 4 2 non rhyming

do you really mean a bumble bee here only as an animal.. it seems as I read it twice and thrice it is more.. :) esp along the last 4 sets.. :)! but it's cute one.. :)

Hi Olive, Thank you so much for commenting on my poem. I'm glad you liked it. The bee is simply a bee. There are no hidden meanings here. I was accommodating the rules of the contest in this poem. Most of my other writings however have layers of meanings. Many times I like to take the entire universe and fit into one tiny atom or molecule just for fun. Have a great day. Take care. Earl

Hi Rhonda, Thank you so much. Glad you liked it. I just stumbled upon this contest and turned it into a bumble kinda bee thingy contest. I hope there is no spelling requirements... I hate spelling bees. It is bad enough they have that stingy thingy. Have a great day. Earl

Hi Jan, Glad you liked it. Stings are no fun. Singing is. I know you are busy right now and you have a lot on your mind. I just posted a poem that is suited for night time reading. I hope you can find some time to read "Attendant." It is one of my better creations. I think you will enjoy it. Take care. Earl
