Meet the ‘rents (A bee movie)
As Humble left the honeycomb, now a bee,
He was accompanied by a guard with a kind heart.
The guards name was Bee-Real, a real gentleman, you’ll see
And he said “Follow me. I’ll take you to where your new parents are.”
There was a little room and as Humble went inside,
There were a pair of bees waiting for Humbles arrival…
“We have been waiting for you.” the lady bee said with a smile.
“How do you do?” Said the male.
Humble was left confused and in a state of bedazzle.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you Humble…
This is your new mother ‘Bakes-a-good-crumble’;
And I am your father ‘Dude’.”
“We have been waiting to meet you.
We are your new relative bees.
Welcome to the Bumble family.”
“We are going to look after you, is there anything you want to know?”
“Who are you?”
“We are the people who will raise you as our own.
We will welcome you, with loving arms, into our home.
The Queen Bee cannot look after,
The 2000 bees she has created today.
So we are your adoptive parents. Is that ok?”
“I’m one of two thousand offspring?”
“Yes Humble, one of two thousand bees born today,
But one in a million to us Humble…come give us a hug…we don’t sting.”

Ha...When I was in grammar school I wrote a short story called "Buzz-buzz the Bee." This reminds me of it. Thank you.
wonderfully intriguing premise, has me thinking it could be start of a didactive children's tale on inspirational adoption ethics, also like your natural flow,
have you considered utilising Italics to differentiate between voices? just a thought, ignore it if you feel I'm out of place for making the suggestion.
