Bees Above Freezing

After weeks of snow
and temperatures below freezing,
the sun came out today.
So did the bees.

As the temperatures rose into the 40's,
the bees flew merrily out...
to poo, to stretch, to see the world.

There were bees strolling on the white icy snow,
bees on the front of the hive,
bees in the air.

Tonight they are back in their cluster
in the warmth of their community shivers
tucked safe and sound in the hive.
I hope they feel better for the break.

This could also be titled:
"Bs Above Freezing"
to refer to the joy that Brendas feel when the sun comes out and the temps warm up.
