I waited for you
Under a carob tree
And Listened to lethargic
Bees Hum softly
Out of tune.
Pensive and moody
At your absence
I wiled away the day
Dreaming of poetry, and
Fondly thrilled
About our love
In the summer’s hue.
Seeing you shimmer
Into view beyond the sun
That had climbed
Into its last deepening hour,
I packed away my thoughts
And watched you
Walk into my heart,
While the lamenting bees
Hummed a rumba
Under the carob tree.
This is beautifully soft and generous. I wonder if carob truly is an aphrodisiac? I loved the lamenting bees, and the rumba. Lovely work as always. ~Pamela
