Determination

Hanging on
A thin bending stem
A little bumblebee
Refuses to fall.

Wind blows stronger,
Ever tighter he clings,
Determined not to lose.

Tenacity is rewarded
As he buries his tiny head
Within the crimson heart
Of a delicate rose
And extracts
The sweetest
Richest, golden nectar.

Paul, I've had quite a few bees in my gardens so far this year even with the cool weather. They have been active. I've seen quite a few hummingbirds as well, I really enjoy them. raskin
