FLIGHT OF THE BUMBLEBEE
“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child,
and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to
the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”
- Ashley Smith

FLIGHT OF THE BUMBLEBEE – Nikolai Rimsky Korsakov
I don't cut brambles
they are not weeds
I let blow in
all that seeds
the bumble bee
finds all it needs
here in my garden
where no heart bleeds
all are welcome
great and small
with open arms
I greet them all
come rain or shine
the four winds blow
land in my garden
and start to grow
from bumble bee
to humble me
I love all nature
it's part of me
at the heart of me
here by the sea
is a sanctuary
filled by serendipity
it is by chance
and sweet happenstance
like pennies from Heaven
and angel's feathers that dance
I am quite sure
at the foot of the willow
there is a land undiscovered
as soft as a pillow
where the stuff of dreams
and of fairytales
comes alive at night
like a billowing sail
setting forth on journeys
landing who knows where
where happiness is all
life is without a care
so listen carefully
when the sun goes down
and you will hear the murmurings
of a tiny town
little doors creak open
little people come out
and under the full moon
they laugh and shout
sometimes I creep out
in the dead of night
when I cannot sleep
and my pillow fights
and I sit in my garden
beneath that old tree
listening and waiting
to unearth the mystery
of why things go missing
or turn up somewhere strange
do the fairy folk borrow them
in return leave me small change
my mind is open
and so is my heart
wishing for a glimpse of them
a sudden noise makes me start
oh, it's just Mr Fox
scratching himself against a tree
followed by Mr Badger
hurrying happily
my daytime garden is transformed
by different smells, sounds and creatures
at night it is a different world
filled with different kinds of teachers.
