Dangling in the Delphiniums

Oh, to be a bee, such a wonderfully fascinating thing
The sound of summer with the buzzing that they bring
Pollinating all the flowers from the seeds that we sew
Without them our food just wouldn’t be able to grow

Beautifully fat and fluffy with very busy wings
Watching them work is one of my favourite things
Frantically beating their wings back and forth they can’t cease
Staying aloft until the flowers pollen they then release

Swooshing about filling the air with gentle hums
Fluffy bodies and dangling legs exploring the delphiniums
As they bumble about the flowers bringing a smile to my face
They are a treasure to us all and must be kept safe
