Bee In the Asters

Fall is just a few days away and so the bees are working even harder than they had all summer.  If there was one bee on this plant there was a dozen.  Not only that, but wee moths were also flitting among the blossoms.  Oh, the little things.

~~~~~~~

Bees in the asters

They know what's 'round the corner

Busy, busy bees

Busy are the moths

Preparing for what's to come

Flitting little moths

A time to prepare

So the asters offer all

And beauty besides

~~~^j^~~~

Thanks be to God!

Spring, Glorious Spring

It Must be Spring

by May Fenn

Hush, can you hear  it?

The rustling in the grass,

Bringing you the welcome news

Soft, can you feel it?

The warm caressing breeze,

Telling you the sticky buds

Are bursting on the trees.

Look, can you see them?

The primrose in the lane, 

Now you must believe it-

Spring is here again.

The Bee

by Emily Dickinson

Like trains of cars on tracks of plush

I hear the level bee:

A jar across the flowers goes,

Their velvet masonry

Withstands until the sweet assault

Their chivalry consumes, 

While he, victorious, tilts away

To vanquish other blooms.

His feet are shod with gauze,

His helmet is of gold;

His breast, a single onyx

With chrysoprase, inlaid.

His labor is a chant,

His idleness a tune;

Oh, for a bee's experience

of clovers and of noon!

Wishing all a glorious week filled with blossoms and bees, and the aromatic fragrances only Spring can supply!

A Daffodil Day

The bee's are buzzing

Daffodils are blooming

Spring is all the rage!

~~HOPE~~

The last two days I have seen something I was afraid I would not see for a long time.  I must preface this by saying I am allergic to the blessed bee.  The good thing is that they seem to be more interest in eating than bothering me.

It has been said that the are on the decline and because of that our crops, flowers and trees will suffer because there are not enough to pollinate.  So that is why I am hopeful.  You see in two different places hundreds of miles apart I saw the bee in action and not just one but lots of bees.
