Thanks Brenda, happy you liked it. Bees I dont mind, its their cousins the wasps that annoy me. Greetings from Turkey. Tom

I am doing my "bit". I have three gardens where honey bees, bumble bees, sweat bees, and wasps are enjoying themselves to the hilt in Kansas. This is true though. We have to stop it!

Thanks Caren, mankind has a habit if ignoring the danger signs until its too late. Tom

Hardly see bees anymore or butterflies. People using Roundup are killing more than bees, and insects. They are killing themselves. We are offing humanity in many ways. But, Tom...humanity has two ears in each head stuffed with earplugs. Panagiota

Thanks Panagiota, problems are highlighted but nobody is coming up with solutions. Tom

So true and humans are the cause and need to be the solution. A meaningful and important haiku Tom. : )
