This for. is so challenging..have only ever attempted it once!! Like "offering life"
ReplyDeleteLife offering life as the bee is indeed the key!
Deleteessence of life beautifully captivated...
ReplyDeleteThanks Sumana
DeleteQuite an amazing space of activity that supports the entire universe, isn't it?! A mighty fine poem!
ReplyDeleteThat is so true Susan, I was at a flower festival and I just had to capture that bee in a sea of violet blue.
DeleteA truly delightful picture you have created with words - and our grape hyacinths have just started to bloom. (As a child I thought they were called grey pythons, and couldn't understand the name.)
ReplyDeleteYou are starting spring and we are heading into our fall. I think the only thing in bloom will be mums, but they do come in some vibrant hues. The hyacinths have an intoxicating scent.
DeleteA lovely painting of words, and that bee just adds meaning to those vibrant blooms
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping in to read mine Truedessa
Much love...
The bee is a life sustaining force and we need to preserve their species, if we want to save ours.
DeleteMuch love back!
Such a very delightful poem :D Lovely work done.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sanaa
DeleteYou have captured the complexity and magic of blooming so wonderfully.. it maybe deceptively simple but it's like a little universe at work
ReplyDeleteVery true Jae Rose a little universe at work, I like that.
DeleteThe circle of life...
ReplyDeleteThe circle of life keeps us going around this big blue marble.
DeleteLife helping life take form indeed with each seed
ReplyDeleteFrom a tiny seed the cycle begins.
DeleteWhat would blooms do without the bee and butterfly? Wonderful work.
ReplyDeleteI have to love the bees and butterflies.
Delete"Offering life"....how lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry! The gift of life from such a humble source.
DeleteYes, blooms definitely offer life! We can be thankful for both blooms and bees.
ReplyDeleteThat we can Mary, thanks to nature we can live.
DeleteA melody in words
ReplyDeleteI am always up for a melody!

Gary, Gary, nary contrary....
Hey Gary,
DeleteIn a garden the words do grow...
Just lovely, Truedessa! Your poem creates a vivid image with an important truth sparsely stated. I could have kicked off a great science lesson with my third graders using this (with permission, of course) or tackled a poetry lesson (which always intimidated the hell out of me). Heck, I'd have had my kiddos write poetry in science! Which we actually did on occasion. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteHi Fundy, Of course I would grant you permission if it would help with the kiddos.
