A hive of activity

Erato leads the mind right into the zone
To look for the sweet nectar sought by the bee
As it fills its sacs with light, colour and tone
Heavy winged ,replete ,it returns to its tree
There its delicate imagery to hone
Ere it is ready to leave and be set free
It's in that moment a poem comes  alive
Emerging fully developed from its hive

The rhyming of the thought, appeals to me. And it expresses every line of the poem.
