Bumblebees, Honeybees and Wasp
Tiny things that run the world,
busy beats, their wings unfurled.
Bumblebees love anther(pollen) threads
blooming hues of blues and reds.
Golden pearls spread all about,
gathered by a little scout.

Pollinizers-Flower Power

Flower bouquets spread their scent,
whiffs and swirls at spring’s advent.
Orchard bees seek apple trees
guided by a fragrant breeze.
Bees create a honey treat-
with lavender so pure and sweet.

The Butterfly
Dainty things that run the world,
silent beats, their wings unfurled.
Butterflies from all around
follow scents that hug the ground.
Dancing-feet atop a bloom,
search for nectar to consume.

Pollinizers-Array of Colors
Flower clusters, vivid hues
Yellows, reds but no blues,
Flower seeds secure their worth,
stretch their roots in fertile earth.
Coneflowers and scattered seeds,
are best paired with butterfly weeds.


The Hummingbird

Swiftest things that run the world,
Hums and beats, their wings unfurled.
Hummingbirds need constant fuel.
Brillant blooms attract this jewel.
Forward, backward, upside down.
These dashing fliers zip around.

The Beauty of Pollinizers
Golden flowers brilliant blooms
Entice birds with shiny plumes.
Blazing Star to Geranium,
Coral Bells to Delphinium.
Flower meadows, patchwork plots,
Scattered seeds in local lots.

-let's sprinkle seeds in local lots.
