  • Busy Bee, Back Bay Boston

    PMC_8955 - Version 22012-03-22-busy-bee-back-bay-boston- © 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Busy bee buzzed by,

    Stopped us in our tracks.

    Followed the beeline to the blossom,

    Where this friend of hungry humans

    Helped mother nature turn flower into fruit.
