You Can Tell the Bees Anything

You Can Tell the Bees Anything

Summary: A whimsical look at the bees.

Go tell your secrets to the morning bees

You’re safe with them; they’ll listen as they work

The only buzz they spread is happiness

And meadow-news to share with only you

The bees – they always seem to understand

They circle you to ask if you’re okay

Then back to work among the summer flowers

But do keep talking to them; they don’t mind

Later, the bees will join us, you and me,

And bring us honey for afternoon tea
