Loving the Beekeeper
(by Paul Henry)
How sweet does it have to be?
Work, drones, work,
from China to Canada,
from Palestine to Peru,
from the flowers in her dress
to the sun’s broken jar,
its fragments of dew,
from last summer’s hive
to this one’s, tuning up
in the loudening blue…
In the name of love,
work, drones, work
