Bee-Love Poem by Zachary Huang

When missing you
I taste a bit of honey
It is still sweet, as usual
The promise you made
For thousands of years

I can hear
Your humming
Your wings dancing
With flowers faintly scented

Closing my eyes
I can feel you from the sky descent
Like an angel
From God

My head becomes light
I don't know if I am smitten
Or just because
my blood sugar is high

It should be your beauty
And your hidden stinger
Both,
Give me that shiver
