When missing you
I taste a bit of honey
It is still sweet, as usual
The promise you made
...
when happy
you spit me some honey
that refreshing sweetness
for years it stays in my memory

The Courage Of A Bee
by Zachary Huang
The Courage of a bee
Is to venture out at 23
Days of age, facing the world of flowers
That have nectar and pollen
But also dangers hidden-in
Birds like a bee-eater
A robber fly, a praying mantis
And on-the-flower crab spider
The courage of a bee
Is to die for the colony
To protect her queen, and her honey
You may feel an excruciating pain
When you get stung
But she loses her life
Because that painful stinger
Drags out her intestine
