Bee Darling

Liquid yellow world
Wrapped around Bee Darling
Under the light
Of the moon at noon
Reverie balanced like a dancer
Atop a block from the ice house.

Bee Darling, you are sweet.
Red paper lanterns
Honey light
Lemon lover
Aura bright.

Cottage in the North
Built around Bee Darling
Dampness of moss
Fills the path of the wagon.
Silence is the song of the year
And the swollen moon that governs here.

Bee Darling, you are chronic.
Dizzy dulcet
Raven hair
Pennyroyal
Honey pear.

Dandy Lion heart
Beating for Bee Darling
Butter yellow confusion
Daffodil laughter sweet and sharp
Riddles, feathers, apathy
Beneath the mossy canopy.

Bee Darling, you are cruel
Needle chaser
Ocean eye
Widow maker
Lullaby.

Very nice, descriptive. Ah..honey bees. Every time I see a bee I will think of this poem.

Well, I'll never look at Bee's the same way.

I can almost hear the buzzing now...this is gentle and delightful with a sweetness to the whole thing.

I enjoyed this, especially the yellowness of the images. At first I
wasn´t sure if the rhyming worked, but on a second read, I like it.

Magical as usual - woven spells etched through your imaginers golden quill - warmth and mystery bled into hand made paper...
I really enjoy stepping into the worlds you create so fluidly - they hang in my mind.
Thank you. x
