Spring Bee

The bee flitted from blossom to blossom in an erratic pattern. It felt like my life, the erratic pattern but without the flowers!  I chose to forget about my life today and enjoy the little bee while I sat in the sun on the patio. After all, it was the first really warm day in a long time.  I guess that's what the insect was taking advantage of too!  I watched him busily flit from the cherry tree blossoms to the forsythia to the tulip beds with determined ambition. My life should be so determined.  I really am blessed, like living among the flowers, but my attitude has been in the pits.  If I could just go about my business like this little bee, I would soon be basking in the honey!  Well, I guess the break on the patio is over, it's time to go back to the computer and back to work!  Bye little honey bee!

Hi Linda, this is a gorgeous little bee. I have been away to the beach. Thankfully I am home and the weather is really great today.

My azaleas are blooming like crazy and those bumble bees are flitting around all over the place. Hope you have a wonderful Easter! :-)

That IS lovely art work! There IS a lesson in the determinedness of a pollen gathering bee.
