Best Bumblebee Poems

I think that I shall never see
A lovely poem written in defense of the bumblebee!
The ponderous and not so glamorous humble bee -
Obviously dreamed up by a senatorial sub committee!

An old stump that in summer becomes its deadly lair,
It flits about chasing little kids, settling...

Lady, with blossom buds in thy hair....

   how fortuitous for me the day is sweeter 

   in the shade of your presence;

   what tall stock thy stem, and flowered

   your bulb of precious petals,

   crimson...

As the dew drops
from a blade of grass,
dips my head
and heaves my chest.

The recycled air
o’ brethren fallen
ignites my ire,
a primal rage.

How the moments stretch
and shrink at will;
In the present only;
neither future
nor past defined.

Beneath the surface,
you will unearth
a man, made whole....

Buzzing bee, keep the sun in your sights,
packing nectar down snug in your tights.
So adroit at your task
that I just had to ask:
" Is that dinner on all of your flights?"...

Sunlight

Wakens the damp

Wings of my faerie friend's

Journey to my bean-pole blossom's

how it soars amazes me

Swan-Bird; instruct me and pray ye swift
That I might show (Babs) as villainous
For he forced Father's self-abolishment to his beloved gift
Thrice- as insect- my revenge has proven venomous
So out of the sea- my flight becomes son-ominous

Busy As A BumbleBee I Go

Busy as a bumble bee I  go,
from flower to flower
with sweet things to bring home.

Busy as a bumble bee I go
just buzzing along.

 Busy as a bumble bee I go
with sweet love to bring home

They say the bumblebee can't fly
His wings won't aerodynamically comply
He has to flap them far too fast
His body's too fat. His wings won't last
Against the wind
He just can't win
The scientists should know

But he who made the clumsy bee knows better
'Cause He strung all those molecules...

a fat bumblebee zooms by
off to find his flower
flying ever so high
he has a mystic power

such a wicked little thing
he is potent for his size
one tiny bumblebee sting
produces such cries

he is magnificent though
for a miniature beast
he'll put on a show
attacking when you expect it least

off...

Gaily glowing 
Adorning Mom’s garden 
Nurturing two fat bumble bees 
Graceful...
