A person sitting out there, as if waiting for a bus
The last one for...

The bees graze in fields of daisies
They dance on flowers like fairies
Quickly…substantially, they buzz around happily
Hopefully, they’re not caught off guard suddenly

In lands, so free
Blissfully,
They will surely flee

They don’t know, oh no…
They...

I wish time could reverse back,
And bring the older days flashback,
When ladies were real women,
Who could work smart like men,
And provide all needs for the family,
Without complaining of the tiredness lily,

Never to look lustfully at the thighs,
Not to look suggestively at a lady,

impulses placed like black boots
in soft sand,
stumbling …
betting a fool’s hope that it leads  …
