Lily Nectar

by Malcolm, under Poetry, Uncategorized

Lotus flower sits for spring

As busy beehive hums hanging

Casting shade onto the clearing

Where Eoster has cast her blessing


Dens empty out their kin

Chiefs of the sky reign supreme

Vaisaravana’s teardrops melt away

Each one helping to mend a world

Turbulent with sorrow and strife


Now is the time for rejuvenation

For life to begin again, start its cycle

Once more. So let the creatures

Run amuck, until they must slumber

Peacefully and dream of warmth again.


The beehive drips a long trail of 

Succulunt nurturing honey
Glistening in the sunlight


It reaches down to grace the 

Center of the lotus flower

And in reciprocation

It reaches out with its

Pink petals


Accepting this companionship

With open arms and a clear head

Beginning a new lifelong bond

One borne out of a love of nature

A desire to be kind and welcome

Towards all that they encounter
