Enterprise

Busy busy little bee

Buzzing round your mother’s knee,

Charging like the Lite Brigade

When you detect an enemy.

Brash determination to protect the hive

From foul or harm.

Bent on blind obedience,

Responding quickly to alarm.

Gathering your nectar from

The clover or the flowers bloom.

Never seeking recompense

Or worrying of gloom and doom.

Peaceful when the day is done.

Thankful for the rest.

Looking forward to the dawn when

You’ll resume your golden quest.
