Before the photo op
bees bumbled and stumbled
drunk on pollen
never staying long
on to the next flower
once ~
twice ~
thrice ~
til the camera was put away.
I grumbled and walked on.
“Where there are bees there are flowers, and wherever
there are flowers there is new life and hope.”
~ Christy Lefteri, The Beekeeper of Aleppo
