Like a Bee

I've taken a friend of mine as a muse over here. She's a great writer and dancer (tango)

Like a bee she buzzes by,

Over here once

Enchanted by the beauty of the flower

And then away to another one.

In a striking black dress

Every eye in the room turns

Hoping to catch a glimpse

Of the lady who dances to the tunes

Everyone else seems to be dancing

But not her,

She seems to be enchanting

Her each step speaking,

Telling her story

Just like a bee.

They say It takes two to tango

Those who’ve seen her,

Mesmerized by her grace

Seem to join in

Dancing along in another realm

For when her words come out

Or her eyes blink

They get transported to another world

Reminiscent of the fragrance that lingers

Even after she passes by

As if she is the flower,

She is in search of.

Like a bee she buzzes by

Over here once

And then away

Leaving everyone

Hoping they were the sweetest flower.

Silly me. I read your poem and loved it. Put it in my favorites and then went away without leaving any words here. I had to come back. I couldn't leave without telling you what a graceful, lovely story this is. My youngest daughter will be this woman someday. I see this in her already. Wonderful, wonderful words.

Ah, an enchanting write about a lovely enchantress...quite splendid. Well written and such loving words of grace. I hope that she appreciates her newfound professions as your muse and the lovely words you have written in her honor.
Light,
