The Lady Bee: A poem


Lost is the lady bee in the apple tree

Drawn to the nature without a mother

Carrying only a bit of poison to protect herself

Looking for the soft petals of security

                                                       How long will the lady bee travel through the branches of misfortune?

                                                       Why doesn't the other insects tell lady bee she's in a fraudulent place?

She has found the wrong leaves

                                  wrong roots 

                                  wrong home

But she will find her way as she learns the lessons of this tree

Her destiny is closer than the lady bee thinks

For this journey is part of it
