The Circle and Cycle of Life and Death-W

The birds and the bees is a common expression
Here and there, birds build the nests
East and West they fly, and don't rest.
Birds are men and bees are women
In fact, birds are free to fly where they like
Restricted are the bees to single queen
Do spend entire life keeping her alive.
Such is an old story of birds and bees.

A bee pollinates flowers, birds spread seeds
Naturally men impregnates eggs, women give birth
Damned otherwise, sex is the key for survival.

The bees make honey, the birds eat the bees
Help flowers to grow when bees become compost
Enables the bees collect nectar produced by flowers.
Bees again make honey, the circle goes on
Entwined together to the cycle of life and death
Evidence of extinction they are considered when
Startting to disappear fast on the earth

Interesting ideas presented in this acrostic! I enjoyed where you went with this. I've pictured birds in a variety of ways and bees too, this is a little different :) Thank you for your kind remarks, I appreciate them greatly! hugs, Kris

Doctor, I like this as it has a rough approximation of Carol's style. That's a nice tribute in itself. Thank you for all your kind words. They mean a lot, they really do. Regards, Gerard.

very interesting ideas, Dr. Ram, you make the male counterpart seem as if it got the bad end of the stick. haha. Not so sure about that all the time! Hey, if I am not mistaken, this is an acrostic poem contest, I think. Check it out, Dr.RAm. I would like to see you rate high, but this is not acrostic, I really enjoyed it as a great poem about the birds and the bees. Luv, Andrea
