For: GYWO Yahtzee Roll #3 prompt:
the dune gave in to envy of
the sea and swept by doors and walls
in tidal waves of sand, the wish
to flood begetting claiming squalls
like swarm which strays beyond the dale
upon a wish to swim and sail
in search of nectar on the brine
for honeycomb of salt and shine
I was inspired also by this chocolate wrapper and used it for a collage. I even purchased the bee stickers today to make it. I haven't actually ate the chocolate yet. I am waiting for summer to settle in.
I like bees and honey. Of course, from an ecological perspective, bees are very important. I rarely eat honey directly from the jar, but I like the flavour in things. The boys' father loves honey and local honey best. He eats it for breakfast everyday and whenever I'm somewhere with local honey, I buy some for him. I like bees and honey as a motif for writing, crafting, puzzles, etc. and given it's cannonical that Sherlock Holmes kept bees in retirement, I've written tons of fic and poems about Holmes' bee-keeping.
Who else liked bees? Emily Dickinson.
To make a praire by Emily Dickinson
To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.
