dug out the hive today

it was tickling the toes of
the presidential lilac
i have the queen in a jar
she had 2 consorts
whom i killed
and a handful of slow
half-frozen workers
whom i didn't kill
because
they'll be lost without
her,
if they make it
to spring

your posts bring me many smiles and thoughts, but not a lot of words! this is a pattern for me... just wanted to let you know i'm glad to 'see' ya around and i'm glad, too, that school and nature are inspiring you and supplying you with positive challenges. <3

aw, you're sweet for saying so! thanks, sister! and yes, wow, that's a good way of putting it -- I suppose what I'd like my life to be is a long series of "positive challenges"! I'm glad to see in your journal that you've got some of your own going on now, too (at least that's what it seems like although I haven't had enough time to read your journal fully/closely). <3 to you too.
