No
raindrops this Sunday morning,
early
August, only sheets of sunshine
falling
into unexpected coolness.
The
menarda stripped of pollen, the bees
hover
over roses, and that unknown purple
flower
by the kitchen window, even
salvia
for a brief moment, then swarm
away
to find a better restaurant or
a
more accommodating waiter, committed
to
an unwavering faithlessness.

the unexpected coolness is here as well, not the dog days of summer
odd
may your bees continue to find what they seek
and us as well
quick and
frequent stops
to each
and every shop
the bee delights
in every light
streaming
through the crop
nr
The sunshine, the unexpected coolness in the usual summer doldrums, and the wandering bees . . .
Exceptional imagery!
Loved every word, Glynn!
