May Day Valentine

Under the weight
they sway the bell-
shaped flowers silently
ringing we could eat
them but instead
we let the bees
carry the weight
of beauty into the sweet
geometries of time
taking its tolling
like listening to a fairy-tale
the hive a mind speaking
over and over the honeyed words
receive the gift of taste and tell
