Bee at risk

Jet Rood

Bzzzz a little bee buzzt
 listen to what I say
 there's a small problem going on
 the flowers are nearly dead

 I fly from pistil to pistil
 but they don't have much taste
 the smell is mostly gone
 and colours fading away

Please stop poisoning
all my tasty plants
there are more friendly ways
to deal with what you kill

Laboratory filled with machines
mixing the plants DNA
why mankind likes to manipulate
I will never ever understand

Let nature go its own way
so I can do my work
the results will not lie
it brings good food to you

And also great diversity
flora and fauna at its best
for you human, to enjoy
I will do the rest

2023: In a world full of chaos, creativity is one of the helping things to keep yourself sane. ******************************** 2014: A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen than you have something very special. - Nelson Mandela - ******************************** I am from the land of tulips and mills. Writing is a need like eating and sleeping. I think we are all wondrous creatures who deserve to love ourselves and live in freedom. I like to participate in cases which can make a difference for myself, my surroundings and the earth. My wish: humanity in a non-dualistic society. more…
