i hear no more bees
dead bee
on a pavement
walkway
at the start
of summer
where i've seen others
still
the same
dying out
and i'm so sad
even on
this sunny day

The problem with the bees is tragic, in so many ways.Pesticides, I believe are the main problem.If I remember, Monsanto, along with the blessing of most governments of the world, have geneticaly altered the crops, what that boils down to, and its very shocking, is that they have spliced into the dna of seeds,Roundup!So when you eat corn, or other foods, your eating Roundup.From what I understand, the poor bees land on the plant, to collect pollen, the poison, gets on them, and causes confusion and then death.I think/fear that this is a really big problem. Without bees, we can all die in about 4-7 years. good poem, look into it.

Yes I am sad especially when \i see the big fat bumblies.. pissed out of their sculls unable to crawl or fly to safety... I always pick them up and put them in asafe place to sleep it off before they buzz off home.
