Bumble Bee

AS I WAS SITTING BENEATH THE SHADE OF A WILLOW TREE READING MY BOOK IN COMPLETE PEACE, RESTING MY BACK AGAINST THE BIG OLD TREE, SUDDENLY I WAS DRIFTING OF TO SLEEP, DOWN FROM THE TREE FELL A BUMBLE BEE; DOWN FROM THE SKY, DOWN THROUGH THE TREE BAM! HE FELL ON ME; HE COULD NOT FLY ANY LONGER, HE SAID TO ME IN COMPLETE HORROR; THE AIR IS TOO HEAVY FOR ME TO FLY IN; WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME, AND MY FRIENDS, WE MAKE THE HONEY THICK AND SWEET; SO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAVE SWEET TEA TO DRINK; WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO OUR COLORFUL FLOWERS; THEIR BITTER AND DRY THEY DON'T LAST MANY HOURS; SO MUCH THE BUMBLE BEE HAD TO SAY BUT; BEFORE HE COULD FINISH HE PASTED AWAY.

The air was threatend by natures ways. Man may be responcible; Mr.Bumble Bee to continue his true ways. In the mean time, left his sweetness deep seeded in your soul.~~~~~Beautiful write Sharon
