Honey Bee

Honey Bee

by Saba Bennett

Hovering, careening, preening,

Beguiled by heavy petals gleaming –

Alighting for an instant, lucky flower

Timeless tongue flicks, honeyed hour

Sticky pistils, pollen-smeered

Smiling bee, glistening beard

Darts off into the yellow fog of noon

Yawning beds of blossoms swoon

About sabasabas

I am a satirist, by day a high school English teacher. I write about fitness, lifestyles, politics, relationships, current events, and travel from my home base in tumultuous Tucson. I try to keep my finger on the pulse of the increasingly bizarre cultural and political scene, and fancy myself a pundit and watchdog. I like to connect the dots from city to regional, regional to national, etc. I like to write cautionary tales free from political correctness and embrace truth, warts and all.
