    The Bees

    Beez a buzzing
    'Round the lake
    Noisy
    There's a lot at stake.

    Although I fear I will be stung
    The time will come;
    My work is done.

    I'll taste the sweetness of the honey
    Melting in my mouth
    And I will have the joy of
    Pleasure...

    In being, doing, feeling, what a blossom
    Of sweet nectar
    Can become.

    Frog, this poem is so intriguing at face value, yet, the open avenues for discussion are simply needful. You manage to metaphorically entrap the reader in a world of the unknown. Beautifully arranged. Great job!

    The reward is well earned - nice little piece. There are so many things in life we risk getting stung for, but that's half the fun.

    Thank you.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
