To celebrate 2019’s National Poetry Day and pay homage to our own busy bees, we would like to share an extract from Angela Wybrow’s beautiful poem Bees.

Bees

Bees are messengers from up above:
Filled with goodness and with love.
Unlike wasps, they mean us no harm:
They are more friendly and have charm.

On fine, silvery wings, the bees take flight,
When the sun’s warm rays are shining bright.
They collect up the pollen in their sacs,
Then, to their hives, they take it back.
