The Purposeful Bumblebee
Still lots of bees around this summer. Which is good.
From 'Natural Inclinations' (50 poems with a common theme of the natural world) . . .
The Purposeful Bumblebee
I pause in my progress for a while
and lie beneath the welcome shade
of an oak’s wide-spread canopy
on a languid summer’s day.
The only sound I hear,
the nearby drone of a humble bee,
a tiny spot against the sky.
I watch it hover for a moment or two
before moving on about its business,
and I marvel at such a resolution,
such purposeful, instinctive industry.
I am content to merely observe,
and I smile at the notion that it is
completely unaware of my existence.
