The author's words were educating, interesting and creative. I enjoyed
the read of this poem. The author conveys interesting facts about bees.
The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is perfect and compliments this poem well.
Hope you had a great weekend!

I really enjoyed reading this poem! You were extremely clear in your sediments, we would be hopeless without our beloved bees. We truly must be careful and protect them.

Hey! I am certain I voted for this. Am I allowed to say that? I not only thought it was poetically wonderful, but it educated and informed. Fantastic job! An overall amazing piece of work about the bee and the importance in our world.

Beth,
This a lovely poem about the bees and their pollination. I never thought of the Bees the way you explained it in your poem. I always thought of them as pests and stingers. Einstein makes a lot since about the life cycle of the bees, and what they do for plants. This is a lovely well-written poem. Like man, the Bees have a purpose also. I will definitely look at them from a distance different. No errors and your image is so fitting. Thanks. Good job, Beth.

It's easy to see why this entry won. Your skillfully-written, cautionary,
informative poem conveys a powerful message about how mankind is failing to do what God commanded.

We should listen to Einstein, and the environmentalists, and stop killing off our little friends. As I'm fond of saying, I wouldn't want to snuggle up to one, but we need these little expert navigators and pollinators to replenish the earth's supplies of the many things that keep it, and us going. Your poem describes the situation beautifully.

A wonderful poem about how precious the bee is. The picture you have posted is what we call a hornet here in Oklahoma. They live in the ground and can be very aggressive. You did a great job. No errors to be found. Shirley
