Scholarly Wanderers

look to the flowers 

caress the wind 

gentle wanderers 

in natures balance 

 

while some are weary 

others they frighten 

slapped and trapped 

to many a nuisance 

 

to others a marvel 

understanding their value

seeing the harmony 

in natures brilliance 

 

winds are changing 

carrying a burden 

too heavy to know 

till their absence 

 

scholarly wanderers 

endangered maybe

beyond return 

carried with penance 

 

pollenators 

lifes elicicers 

for when the queen 

is gone we will miss her

 

hives are falling 

to a mite that kills ...

 

what will happen when 

wings that beat 

for a million years 

suddenly fall still ....
