God's Blessing

The maple tree leaf Sheens of white upon them lay.... Crystalline manna Grass lying beneath Sticky to tennis shoe sole.... small sounds as I walk The diligent bee gathering, gathering, fast.... Quiets at twilight. INTERJECTION: Some would not return to the hive. Too heavy to fly, too far to crawl. I’m sure they will die... Inspired by a hive or hornets, deluging a huge maple tree in my back yard, which was weeping sap from the leaves. May 24 2010 For Rick's "Haiku You" contest
