One for Stef as she battles her way round the BGR
Determination
Hanging on
A thin bending stem
A little bumblebee
Refuses to fall.
Wind blows stronger,
Ever tighter he clings,
Determined not to lose.
Tenacity is rewarded
As he buries his tiny head
Within the crimson heart
Of a delicate rose
And extracts
The sweetest
Richest, golden nectar.
