Where Bumbles Bounce

They pollinate our farms Without them, what would we do? They give us the opportunity To eat those veggies and fruits They pollinate our farms Help us to satisfy our appetites With gourmet cuisines grown By those who know the richest earth They pollinate our farms With their jubilant buzzing praise Creating what we cannot Blessings of God’s endless grace They pollinate our farms Give us a sample of what it takes To bring about nature’s miracles With their dancing wings of yellow They pollinate our farms Without them, what would we do? They bring us a wealth of good bounty To keep us filled with nutrients. September 11, 2019 Where Bumbles Bounce Poetry Contest Sponsored by: craig cornish POET'S NOTES: I reread the instructions for this and it said memories which I have a few of - being stung when going barefoot, etc... but I'd already written this so decided to enter it anyway. Hope it's not too far off topic and if it is - God bless the entrants who have a better idea of bee memories than I do.

Hello Regina … the world of humanity needs to heed this message. Yes, bees will sting you, but they compensate with their honey, but it's their pollinating that allows us all to survive - thank you Regina for this wise poem - Lindsay

I haven’t been stung since I was a child but perhaps it’s BEE- cause there are so few around. Your poem hits on good points! Nice one :) good luck in the contest
