A Blessed Bee Sting

Smelt rose
Then froze
I spy
Bee fly
Stings eye
I cry
Swells up
Don't rub
Ran quick
Kicked brick
Sore toes
And nose
Face swell
Unwell
In shock
Called doc
Did check
Round neck
Bad leg
And head
Will heal
No deal
Hear buzz
Still loves

Any tribute to the little but powerful bee makes me smile. Bees do have a way of surprises us with a ‘kiss’. My husband is a bee keeper, so he always has a story to tell. Save the bees!

Thank you Deborah, yes save the bees, I try to attract them into my garden with different types of flowers and lavender. Never thought of a sting as a kiss from a bee and is a lovely way of putting it. I will remember that in future. Emilia : )

Hello Emilia … fine footle indeed Emilia. Bees are so important to our well being but they don’t take kindly when feeling threatened - Happy New Year Emilia - Lindsay
