The Sweetness of Honey and Patience
The Honey was sweet; It melted and oozed.
I thought of the feat; did bees get to choose?
To make all that sap – to fly 'bout those blooms —
I thought of the feat; did bees get to choose?
For months they did fly at the Queen's request —
They never did lie; they flew to the west.
They searched high and low, then gathered and mixed —
They never did lie; they flew to the west.
For months they did work till the Queen said *Stop!*
*Now look! This artwork that you've made here atop –*
*The job is now done; the honey is capped.*
*Now look! This artwork that you've made here atop!*
For months they did work; sweet honey they made–
Consider, dear sweet, this short serenade.
Oh, the sweetness of honey and patience,
Consider, dear sweet, this short serenade.
