I love this, Sarah ... it’s BEE‑autiful! There’s such tenderness in the way you cradle that one small life. And in pure, buzzing synchronicity, the bumblebees have arrived here too! For they’ve just begun building a nest right outside my kitchen door ... as if your poem had been quietly preparing the ground (well wall!) for their arrival.
We checked with a local beekeeper and come late summer they’ll drift on naturally ... leaving the hollow behind for us to fill. So now, the garden is a‑buzzing with gentle, bumbling, velvet‑striped wanderers. Unlike honey bees, they’re very s-l-o-w, docile, non‑stinging souls unless their queen or nest is threatened.
What a Beltane blessing today! This shared hum between your poem and the world outside my door ... a reminder that sometimes the smallest wings carry the sweetest synchronicities. 💖🙏🐝
Thank you, my friend! Oh, how lovely to have the gentle buzzing of bumblebees as your accompaniment going into summer! I have some wildflowers in front of my house that the bees and butterflies are enjoying (and I am enjoying watching them).

Such a beautiful story poem, Sarah! Such a tender encounter with a bee, a teacher, and a reminder of shared nature.
Thank you, my friend!

My pleasure Sarah!
Beautiful mindfull presence in the moment...where it's all happening...
Thank you, Chris 🙏🏻
Oh, but of course you can save the world!
Not alone, but every little bit, and every little one, helps.
Reminds me of another poem about
one butterfly at a time ...
Think that one was less disillusioned, if I remember it right now...
I actually consider this a hopeful poem.
