Bumblebee

Oh, you damned bumblebees!
You flit, you dart, you come so close
with your humming, buzzing melodies.
Then you disappear like a ghost
You catch my eye
as you fly by.
I follow your every move.
Your dainty, deft dancing
is beautiful, I must confess.
The way you seduce each flower
in your black and yellow dress
should be a crime
in any one's time,
but we all love your groove!
Yes, my sweet bumblebee,
You, solely have grasp over this father.
I will watch you from glen to lea,
so as to admire my wonderful daughter.
I'll offer up my hand,
on which, for you to land.
I swear I will not move.
Statuesque, I will stand,
even if stung by she whom I love!
I will endure, as is planned,
by The One sitting high up above.
I will play my part,
until your heart
is given to a man to lose.
So fly away, oh bumblebee!
Seek out each and every bloom!
Take in all that this world can offer thee,
then come home to rest, I have the room.
I will stay steadfast,
here until the last,
patiently awaiting to hear news of you.
