Kerri Shying R - # 315 - Overtime


Overtime

from the air  and guided by rapidity
of flight            the bees 
find you             full and standing ready
tall  of stamen              pistil
being  Springtime             clotted in

the pollen            as a fragile dress
bee stands              without  due reverence
on that pouted lip
the flower petal

I will pick your bloom at lunchtime
have it in the vase             for dinner guests
no less the wise            of robbery
at dawn

  1. in fragile dress
    the reverend bee
    stands full of flight
    by bud filled vase
    bloom draped
    in pollen pouted
    all honeyed thoughts
    of robbery
    till dusk curls
    little rounded rest

    just so
    we lucky few
    are blessed
