The Birds and the Bees
The Birds and the Bees
The birds and the bees are flying in the trees
and the bees are seeking pollen that is free.
The birds are looking for sticks to build their nest,
since they will be needing a place for their little guests
and the little eggs will be laid in a home away from pests.
The bees bring nectar to the hive for them to make honey
for all of them to eat when its cold and not sunny.
Bees are busy little fellows buzzing in the flowers
and spreading pollen around with all their power.
The pollen spread to other plants is needed for
the gift of new life to be given from one to another.
We are not alone in this world and we need others
in order to share ourselves in the creation of life,
like the birds and the bees and a man and a wife.
(Caution: in telling children about the “birds and the bees,”
you may want to give them a few more details than these;
otherwise, they may grow up looking for their little one
to be delivered by a bird like a stork and then get none.)
