To Bee

to see a bee just be a bee is to behold to surely see a bee you see can only be and being bee he cannot flee to take the form of tick or flea him being bee him with his buzz when I reflect I think it does help me to see that being me is all that I shall want to be and when we die no longer buzz and make the shift from is to was I think that I will learn to fly and he and I will both with I AM be

Brilliant. Zen butterfly dreaming of being a man or man dreaming of being a butterfly? I really love the ending... Being with "I AM"... Brilliant Jeff. Absolutely brilliant...

Hi BJ, these are the ones that baffle me. I can't think of what to write, and I go out with Missy for a walk, and there are the bees, feasting on the persimmons on the ground, and pop! there it is, lol. Thanks for reading and commenting!
