I love the bees that tend the flowers in my garden.
     Admiring them as they brush by, winging to the hive.
          We have established friendships no matter how fleeting.
               And share a common bond by working together.

Yet, with the approach of winter you are gone.
     Then the warmth of spring soon brings your return.
          This is the time to renew old friendships.
               Your populations are the vital keepers of the planet.
