Flowers Greet Bees

FLOWERS GREET BEES            Pantoum

        Around flowers busy bees are humming
        Flowers hold honey in heart to offer.
        Bees suck, collect honey fleeing and coming.
        Pollen sticking wings and legs may scatter.

         Flowers hold honey in heart to offer
         Honey is stored in bees’ home: honey-comb.
         Pollen sticking wings and legs may scatter.
         Ovulation occurs in flower’s womb.

        Honey is stored in bees’ home: honey-comb.
        Storage supplies food for bees in winter.
       Ovulation occurs in flower’s womb,
       pollen may fall on ovum of flower.  
       
        Storage supplies food for bees in winter.
        Bees suck, collect honey fleeing and coming.
        Pollen may fall on ovum of flower.
        Around flowers busy bees are humming.
