The Buzzing Garden

Hello my dear fellow friend of summer,
Up flying gently threw the big blue sky.
Back to their homes the buzzer the hummer
The queen, the leader there, keeps a close eye.

The sweet nectar, like how a river flows 
Brought with care, sent across the lake, the sea
For generations this is how it goes
How nature is, some things are meant to be.

The beauty of these creatures, oh so sweet
I can’t describe how crucial their jobs are
In saving all the flowers, one big feat
You are the most important thing by far

So when I see you come, stinger hardened,
I ask myself, why I bought a garden.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
