Carpe Diem Summer Challenge 2019: Flowers and Bees

Summer Flowers

depth of a flower
flying away with the bee
some mystery

depth of a flower
more than human eyes can see
beneath its petals

flying away with the bee
nectar gathered for the hive
pollen on their legs

some mystery
why foolish humans can't see
how necessary

~Jane & Cie~


Notes:
The "sleigh" of this Troiku was created by Jane Reichhold (1937 - 2016). The trio of bees pulling the sleigh was wrangled by me.

    Increasingly my grumpy self is more surprised when people DO see the importance of species other than our own.

      LOL, I don't know what to do when I find myself in the presence of people who aren't mean-spirited and self-absorbed. Living in the Land of the Orange Buffoon has done nothing to decrease my cynicism or utter disdain for the soulless rich.
