As I sit quietly here,
a honeybee, not a butterfly, glided silently around me.,
as I sat next to her on the porch
with the golden sun light bathing her open wings I felt light as well.
She was there, unafraid to share
what seemed to me a sweet little secret.
She was cool and mysterious, but straight forward told me;
“ I’ve been waiting for you, poetic man ”- I want to sting you!
She just wanted to warn me,
to make sure I didn’t get up and run like crazy
or rub my shoulder and kill her.
You can make friends over a sting operation,
that’s for goddamn sure!
