ode to poetry



image: google

i am the bee looking for nectar
you show me how to get it
taking me from one emotion to other
exploring all of them
i get dizzy but you hold me
pushing me to accomplish
the honey flows in the words 
words coming from my heart
taking me with them
i loose myself in it
becoming one with you
i find peace

  1. I love this metaphor. Right now we have so many bees in the garden (and hummingbirds). I love thinking I try to gather words like they gather nectar. Lovely

  13. Ahh..sometimes i feel like my computer is just a little working bee..connecting to the hive..of minds..of the hive mind of poetry..
    and yes..i'm just a little drone..singing a song...

    to the Queen bee..

    wherever she is..
    so i keep humming a song..and buzzing away...

    to please the Queen with words..
    and images ..too..as they come as
    well..free flying..away..connecting to hive..

    just buzzing along...alone...allone....

    as well...
