The Shy Bumblebee Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Attracted by the brightly dressed petals
The shy bumblebee is to shy to protest
In his silky new suit of scents and pollen
He matches aimlessly around the ever-smiling flowers
Apparently intoxicated by the free flowing nectar
The contents of his smile revealed
Exposed by a flirting group of roses
As they paraded their newly acquired hats
And a provocative line of perfumes
The shy bumblebee is too shy to refuse
This bountiful group of sunflowers
With their brightly colored hearts
The source of his love
