Honey Bee’s and Balm

the miracle that is Honey

a curative in fact

for  Bee’s

it was  one  joyful nymph

Melissa it was she

a Bee Nymph

a true ovate

who discovered wild honey

she realised its potency

as such the Lemon Balm

flowers

were charged with exaltation

So she fed  young Zeus

for  hours

the tiny balm flowers laden

with pheromone rich flowers

the pollen laced with genius

and unbelievable powers

in that cave in Crete

this mixture gave him power

contentment and a glorious health

from the Melissa flower

there is  no finer medicine

for Bee’s not anywhere

the pheromones that  it contains

so sweeten their  air

around  the hives

each congregation benefitting more

Meli equals honey Melisssae

even more.

never pull up Lemon Balm

to do that is to be

ignorant and arrogant

and in fact so guilty

of causing them such massive stress

they  need  the elixir raw

stealing it and heating it

and shaking it will ignore

its properties,nthe Bee needs

this heavenly god like cure

its wild its truly magickal

and very very pure.

all we do is mess with it

destroy its heavenly touch

it really  is a gift of the gods

which is why its much

sought after man is far from  kind

mindlesdly he steals

from the Bee’s sad coffers

and by so doing reveals

toxins in the medium he ruins

Everything

fools the general public

and creates the vilest sting
