pollen
bright yellow
on the knees of the bees
the secret
powering
flower to fruit
golden harvest
the quiet
humming
at the heart
of our world
for Read Write Poem
Co-incidentally, Melissa, Poet with a Day Job had a poem about bees (and two others) published recently in this Joy and Ride, why not pop over and read them here, you'll be glad you did!
More Bees Knees here and here.

OH the bees, the bees! how we need them!
Great work and thanks for the link!
Lovely bees!
Really gave me a buzz!
I love "the quiet humming at the heart of our world"
It worries me to think the bees might be disappearing
There's such beautiful music here. A wonderful job.
This is so gentle like the bees are humming their praise as they work in the fields.
Sweet and gentle flow here..

This is sweet. Although I am allergic to those wonderful buzzing critters, I do so love the idea you have laid here.

Nice poem, and a good link as well.
ah. bees' knees. :) nice. :)
the last four lines are especially wonderful! beautiful poem.
I am not a bee buff. I should meditate on your poem. ;-)
this poem humms beautifully
i like how this softly and gently builds--from the very very small specks of pollen on the very small bees knees to harvest to heart to world...
