Let me in! Let me in!
cried the bee
the sun is scorching
feel the window to see
The plant next to the window
has a cool leaf
a flower blooming
a place of relief
Tapping hard
the glass will not move
legs stuck to the window
sliding down to the groove
Buzzing now
begging for help
sun getting hotter
beginning to melt
A ray of hope
a hole in the screen
edging through it
cool and redeemed
On the flower now
restored and in a sweet slumber
cool drafts flow through the leaves
content in the summer
