The Birds Plus the Bees
Come over here my beloved …
let’s snuggle up together on the old porch swing
to enjoy the glory of the setting sun
whilst listening to wild birds trilling
their sweetest songs
We sit together in complete silence
observing the pretty butterflies
flitting from flower to flower
fluttering their colorful bejeweled wings.
Stripy bumble bees buzz busily
collecting pollen from golden honeysuckle
which climbs over the rickety wicker trellis.
Your fingers seductively brush my thigh,
you give me your ‘knowing smile’
I see the look of love in your blue eyes -
then your lips meet mine.
Enough of seeing the birds plus the bees
you whisper -
it’s time for us to go to bed!
