A Bee Poem by K. V. Venkataramana
A Bee
I am only a bee
Sucking at the flowers of
Virtues of humanity
And deriving my
Sustenance out of them.
Colours of petals
Or thorns on the stem
Do not distract me
From drawing the nectar;
And with hope
I keep buzzing
Over the vast human vegetation
And propagate
The pollens of peace.
You write of the bee's activity so innocently, yet you say much of what we should be pondering. In particular, your words Sustenance out of them. Colours of petals Or thorns on the stem Do not distract me remind me of colored bottles. We should be more concerned about what is inside rather than how the outside looks. More importantly we should apply this approach to our regarding the persons around us.
