EVERY BEE IN THE HIVE

   I do not wish
 You the Best.
   I often wish you,
Under Arrest.

   I hope you have no
Towel when you Shower.
   I hope you meet
the Night Prowler.

   I hope when you pee,
there is no Toilet Paper.
   I hope you never get paid

A hive of activity

Erato leads the mind right into the zone
To look for the sweet nectar sought by the bee
As it fills its sacs with light, colour and tone
Heavy winged ,replete ,it returns to its tree
There its delicate imagery to hone
Ere it is ready to leave and be set free
It's in that moment a poem comes  alive

The Snake Pit, The Bee Hive, and The Lions' Den

Watch your step, so you don't end up here
Where people like you simply disappear
To be devoured like prey, they're on the hunt
Looking for their next victim for them to stunt

Beware of the snake pit, the ones who take
The ones who would drown you in a lake
Of their own selfish needs and desires

Bee Hive

In the arid grasp of a withered plant,
The hive appears forlorn, its dryness stark,
Yet within lies the nectar all relish and want,
Nourishing sustenance, a feast to embark.

A facade of chaff and wax, so unassuming,
A fragrant lure that entices the birds,
They gather eagerly, their beaks consuming,
Sputtering and squawking, their appetites spurred.

Satiated and vibrant, they clumsily take

For the Queen

In the hive, she is so well attended -
thousands of workers, all pleased to toil,
hundreds of soldiers keep her defended,
all for her, and her palace of soil.

But when it comes time, my queen, I'm afraid,
it will be just me bound purely to you.
No castle with servants, no knights to bade - 
and I'm hardly a

Advice From the Fortune Telling Hive

The lavender haired princess was not used to living in a hive.
But weren’t you one of several children. “Yes,” she said “five.
But the others were worker bees, which is not the same.

"Wouldn’t that be lovely?" Her new friends asked, feeling glad.

Queen Bee Unseen

Our spirit is the sole queen 
Queen of the body’s hive as seen 
Without her, all would be anarchy 
Oh Queen, mercifully guide me 

If she falls over and tumbles 
The hive falls too as it rumbles 
Both plunge to the dirt of the tree 
Oh Queen, mercifully guide me 

If she is sound and

Bee To Be

Then soon the climate migration began
when one they called Ian had ravaged our land
So fiercely he raged with his power and might
all would lay waist in the wake of his flight 

So was the damage that Ian had done
the people were left but to follow the sun
Masses of people now needing a home 
many left

The Bee

Lemon blossoms blooming
Orchards heady fragrance
Gives rise to thoughts of fruit
Globes of yellow citrus
The crop will be profuse.

 Lemon blossoms blooming
The scout has done her job
Under warm summer sun
Dripping orchard nectar
Honey bees job begun.

 Lemon blossoms blooming
Fragrant flowers entice
Those hungry honey bees'
Their hive a seething space 
So little room to breathe.

 Lemon blossoms blooming
The queen is

Bountiful Bee Hive Betty

So the Hive will survive and thrive

Hive

Hear
Me now
The beehive
Mirrors our life
Their demise our doom
Together we survive
A joyful spring renaissance
Ancient waggle dance gives rise to
Rapturous hive awash in nectar 
Wheel of life rotates~ balanced harmony.



The waggle dance informs the watching bees where a source of nectar can be found.

Hive of Striving

we are everywhere
within the straw of our relationships
	      to shine a sheen
