Goodbye Buzzy Bee
We rescued you from Mr Spider’s web,
gave you a proper burial, like Daddy said.
We tucked you into a bed of flowers,
where during the busy sunlit hours,
your friends - the bees and other insects -
could visit you to pay their respects;
crawling on petals, dancing around leaves,
goodbye Buzzy friend, most beloved of bees!
gave you a proper burial, like Daddy said.
We tucked you into a bed of flowers,
where during the busy sunlit hours,
your friends - the bees and other insects -
could visit you to pay their respects;
crawling on petals, dancing around leaves,
goodbye Buzzy friend, most beloved of bees!
