Sweet Temptation

The way Nature gets her way

Curly fringes
of yellow Roses
Nestled deep in Garden’s clutch
Tug insistent upon bumblebee noses
Teasing them in with temptress touch

Covert trade…
Golden pollen for golden nectar
In transaction to them known not as such
With siren song and no hint of hector
A touch of sweetness…but not too much

Oh, I like this. I was afraid it was going to be a sappy love poem, but it was refreshingly about bees and flowers...which I guess is a sort of love poem at that...
