The Bay, the Bud, and the Bee
I am a yellow and sweet sticky treat
for fuzzy-footed bumblebee, fair and yellow.
Silky fellow, delightfully. Sun is warm
and runs warm hands through my
fuzzy friend's gilded mane.
Sticky feet and pollen
meet to travel
to a new
landing.
I am
standing tall.
Open eye; black and
seeing an infinite blue sky.
Since my seeding, My eye was
forever staring into that open sky.
Suddenly!
Im am bleeding!
And it is seeping into
that dark place below. The earth
shakes and rumbles as it flows and flows.
It takes deep secret routs
away from me. Deep and
secret roots reach
all the way to
the raging
sea.
The waves
take me infinitely.
And when those same waves
crash back to shore, I find myself once
more. I am proud, head high and standing tall
until I fall; Until I see my blue, raging self overtake me.
washed away by the bay. That yellow bud and that lovely bee.
