A large bee on a red flower

Beside the brilliant babbling brook, bees begin their day
Flitting between the fragrant flowers, they fertilize away
Gently generating the next generation, they give it all they’ve got
Eagerly expecting the Earth’s esteem, they escape with the lot
To help the honey in their hive and hear what others have seen
These thrifty, tiny insects work tirelessly for their queen!
And yet
They’re disappearing one by one,
For humans pose a threat.
We must reverse what we’ve done
Or we shall soon regret!

Erynn Crittenden

Erynn Crittenden has written poetry since she could hold a pen. This love prompted her to earn a BA in Creative Writing, where she learned how to experiment with syllables and styles. Since then, Erynn has self-published three poetry collections (By the Bones, Transfiguration, and Into the Western Sky) through Amazon. She also writes and publishes plenty of individual poems on her website, and her work has appeared in the Talon Literary Magazine, the Beautiful Poetry anthology by Silent Sparks Press, the #AmWriting anthology by the Wayne Foundation, and Life Blood: A Collection of Vampire Tales by Gary Hill. Erynn is also the creator and host of the Present Poetry Podcast, where she reads and celebrates a different poet every week.
