RIP Cleopatra Hive
Dec 15, 2019
RIP Cleopatra Hive.
Ode to the Queen ~ Thank you for pollinating the twining green beings, the fruits and flowers, vegetables and medicinal herbs.
Thank you for your beauty, buzz, and otherworldly fragrance.
Thank you for your honey (though we never did harvest any) and for your pollen and royal jelly.
You truly were a regal Queen ~ A thriving Bien.
Hopefully, your offspring swarms are out there continuing the good and necessary work and high art of turning liquid nectar into nature’s most perfect immortal food.
Thank you for your erotic floral dance that activates the buds and blooms that make this earth such an abundant and beautiful place to live.
You had a good, long run... surprisingly long, given all the various factors and vectors you and all insects and pollinators are fending off for your survival these days. 6 1/2 years of occupying this home.
When I went to check and tuck you in for the winter, you were gone. Absconded your throne.
Thank you for your service. You will never be forgotten.
Long live the Queen and all manner of buzzing, humming bee-ings.
Blessed be.
