Bees

Bees on beach, lost,
squirm in the waves
upside down, and trapped.

Antenna and eyes haywire meant
precious load of nectar and pollen
lost to hive as bees fell from sky.

Less beds of flowers, crops of grain
will be fertilized today
by bees dusted all over with pollen.

Buzzy busy bees behemoth benefits
lie belittled, mere specks on beach,
belies the butterfly effect of wrecked downed mobees.
