Hum a Little Moonbee Tune

I bet moonbees sting
And zap when they zing
I'll wager it's true
They love flowers too...

In hot Texas heat
At high-noon we meet
She guns me down cold
With bullets of gold

Tim, I've never seen a "moonbee," but I love the way you describe the way they interact with flowers, yet have the power to gun you "down cold With bullets of gold." Awesome writing, my friend! Love, Carolyn
