~To Love a Flower~

Deep, dark irises
And luscious lips
Are tormenting pollen
For bee stinger tips
Sweet nectar's a dream
For a starving hive
Their fates must mix
For the love to survive
But flowers will be flowers
That the blind shall pluck
The relationship rains
For the bee's out of luck
She points her stinger high
The tulip, she grins
The beekeepers rise up
To stop their sins
Some bees favor flowers
That's the pollen of souls!
But all comes to nothing
If the righteous patrol

There is an important message woven in here. If the bees starve, we shall come next!

Well done.

Love,

Yo Jaki H,

When I was keeping bees, they loved Tulip trees.

thanx all!

actually its funny you like my style because i recently shared a poem with my ap english teacher... who said it was too sing-songy. apparently she only likes free verse

and the poem actually has nothing to do technically with flowers... i write my poems cryptic so only i can hopefully get it.. its actually about love and discrimination for certain types of love lol

thank you again!
Love you all
Jaki H
