Analysis of Bees

Ronald Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)



The branches of the trees,
And the honey for the bees,
We find that golden-gold.

Not just for the queen,
But for humans and flowers,
If a bee-tree breaks will the honey be sold?

How well can a bee-suit protect?
And you can’t out run the bees,
Will you die from being bold?

But we must protect our insects,
From the large wasp rejects,
But like poker we might not all fold.
