    A rhythmic rhyme sweet and sublime. Delightful to the senses. Who cares if honey bees have knees or if it's comprehensive. Just having fun with a little pun so please don't take it beesily. :)

    Hi the Ho!! I like this one very much. Just what are "bees knees" ? Do bees really have knees? Take care, keep om writing, Jancarl

    Squyres Avatar Debra Squyres Date: 2/16/2013 11:11:00 PM Block poet from commenting on your poetry

    It is suppose to have a double meaning...pollen on the bees legs (knees, hmmm do they have them?? who knows lol) The bees knees is an expression meaning "Cool" ....

    oh this is cute. It reminds me of footles style in a way. Love that old expression bees knees. I bet the new generation does not even know it. And my favorite one of this set is the tea for two with those honeyed lips!!
