Benny The BeeA Poem by George David Hope
BENNY THE BEE
Benny was a little bee Who tried so hard to please But Benny had a problem Pollen made him sneeze He little antenna would get so itchy And his eyes would all turn red Being a bee who had hay fever He wished he could stay in bed Benny found a lovely clump Of blue Forget Me Nots By the time he'd collected the pollen His nose was full of snots He pleaded with the Queen bee "Could I have an office job? I can write down who's collected what, Don't think I'm a lazy slob" The Queen she saw his problem With his eyes so red and sore She said "I might have the answer, You can stand and guard the door" Now Benny has a special job He controls who goes in and out And if you have good hearing You just might hear his buzzy shout He tells the bees to form a line In case they bang their noses He makes sure that there's no bumping Bringing back pollen from the roses So when you see a bee hive And a bee stood by the door You can bet his name is Benny And his hay fever is no more
