TIME TO BE LIKE BEES
(A Freestyle Tanka Quintet)
Once feared allergy,
back in 1963,
gave wisdom to me:
Learned from the sting of a bee;
we need hiving unity:-
Researching bee stings,
revealed much about beings
and disunity:
We need hived togetherness;
reaping from the unity:-
Let’s get together,
sowing and reaping oneness
in all our labors:
Let’s be hived life’s weather;
surviving in shared meekness:-
In a life’s hiving,
let’s be about surviving;
stinging together:
Being for one another,
no matter what’s the weather:-
God’s our hive’s keeper,
his love, our living stapler;
faith, being our queen;
Our hived oneness always seen:
onederful onement, live streamed:-
