The birds and the bees, the wine and the cheese, you are good at capturing the buzz of interpersonal relationships, Kate.
Read Norman Mailer's 'Castle in the Forest' novel and learn how Herr Hitler's father took up bee-keeping and almost had a mental and physical collapse over the demands of family and hive life. Young Adolf being the bumble bee from hell, the fly in the ointment.
Thanks for review of da bulb!
It's a very early poem that somehow got left out of my AD collection - hiding in a box under the kitchen cupboard like a mysterious mushroom. :-)
But it ties in well with your latest scilly adventures. Inspired by the British love of gardening, of course. A Titchmarshian, Percy Thrower poem, you might say.
Hope we both have a brilliant blazing colourful year!
Extremely creative and playful, Kate. Nicely done:)

Your sudden flashes, Kate, leave the brightest of afterglows! I adore this very spring-feeling, honey-tipped dance. Your form is especially unique as it all beautifully leads to that final stanza. This is a sigh, a glimmer, a twinkle, a connection of the most delicate of worlds.
Sweet Amusings is what I got Sweet Kate! And I hope you find More along the way! I hope your New Year is filled with much Inspiration and Harmony throught your nights And Days!!! This heck of bee Poem is Sweet Necter and a Treasure I will savor, but then all you share always seems to touch My heart! Deeply... NATURE has so much to Teach us and does...

Keepers at home! Hah, that's why the Bees get relegated each season.
What a sting.
Clever write you writ Miss B, KB, hmmm, Keeper B.
I do nee not mean to Drone on. So it's to bee or not to bee that is the question of who beehives themselves.
..this is buzzing with delight Kate...gosh..brings back a memory across from my Grandmother's..behind the little store where we would spend our quarter on a bag of candy was a bee keeper..and I loved watching him gather the honey as a little girl :)
Love,Christine
Ah sweet Kate you know just how to look at and appraise the life around us whether it be the bee or the tree you manage to find your metaphors and analogies easily. I loved this one...well done indeed.

Kate, a metaphor or a profound observation and terrific analogy -- regardless of how you intended it, I find it a masterful translation -- and yes, "honey" always keep the hive humming! -- may peace and love be always with you my friend -- Jon Michael
Ah give me the bees humming in the lattice and the comforts of home. Whimsy? I think not. I flirt with ideas and travel in my mind these days and shake my booty while washing dishes. My social life has shrunk but so have the obligations. Sweet write, Katie. Blessings this New Year...Lin
And who doesn't like the taste of honey when they sup at the table of love. Love the cute, Your hive or mine- bees in striped shirts- all intoxicate the mind with images you create with your words.

Kate, I love this whimsical poem. We can learn a lot from nature's creatures. They know how to live in harmony with the Earth and their fellow creatures...If only...
