Rose have thorns and honey comes with stings ... all beauty has a price ... so this poem is the only priceless beauty. Bravo

Looks like everyone is simply "buzzing" over this poem! Nice piece, Barbara! Nothing like fresh honey! (p.s) I like to watch the bees at work in my garden...the bumblebees especially love my purple flowers! Donna

Yes, the "sting" gives me chills when I think of the consequences. Why is it everything that promotes beauty seems to be endangered right now? You have my attention, Barbara! Love, Carolyn

Cute poem. Haven't seen much of bees or butterflies in these last couple of years. Both are fascinating insects--though I stay away from the stings. Keep on writing! Karen
