~ A Living Jewel ~
Ruby and emerald and sapphire
Are the gems of his attire,
Clothed in an iridescent glow
Like fragments of a rainbow.
Aerobatic antics make my heart stir
As his wings beat to a misty blur
Searching each exotic flower
So that he can gently shower
His kisses upon petals of gold.
Then they immediately unfold
To give him a rich reward -
Nectar, generously outpoured.
Then, off he flies at breakneck speed
In search of yet another feed.
Darting here and there all day,
Such a breathtaking, graceful display!

Bee Well
I love this piece's imagery. His wings beat to a misty blur. Gently shower His kisses upon petals of gold. Let me be frank if you are poor these words say that you are rich. I thank you for the sharing and I hope you go ever deeper for this is not a picture painted by a man but the observation of greatness and expectancy described by a gift in you. So while you continue on in this calling I challenge you to always look for the hand that painted these scenes and indeed gives us sight of them otherwise we would never know not one beautiful thing or know anything valuable. Thank you again
Ansel
