holey wooden stake
meek bumblebees weave about
bumbles a cupped hand

Bloom
Push earth
with your green
Reach the sun's youth
with tender, thin limbs
filled with sweet sugar dew
and honey sap for bumbles
which wait in eager buzzing air
like moments to be pollinated
and passed on in nature's conversation....

As I watch them de-pollenate the flowers
It reminded me of when I make love
For the very first time and
Lost my virginity
As they stick their long tongue inside
The flowers to make honey
Watching as it seeps slowly down
Covering the stems of the flowers
It also reminds me of
Seeing my family 
come together for the time
to work and achieve
a common goal
a family 
that works together will
manage to succeed
at anything, remember
the sky’s the limit...

A rabbit’s foot, auspicious
an albatross for sailors
or China’s magic bamboo
all signify a windfall -
what immigrant’s wish

in trust of what is God’s will
a cross is worn by many
to show faith in a Savior  -
who immigrants wish

Favors shown, sorry mishaps
for mortals lacking foodstuff  -
why immigrants wish

a sanctuary, lodging -
where immigrants wish

what immigrants wish
