But Oh, How He Loves Me

He stings like a bee 
but Oh, how he loves me 

Cuddles and huddles 
we are sweeter as doubles 

pollinated love seeds 
two affectionate reeds 

holding on to my honey 
as if he were a bunny 

tumbles and buzzes 
there are no becauses 

we simply love each other 
like sister and brother 

he stings like a bee 
but Oh, how he loves me
