Solitary Bee/Solitary Bee

Solitary Bee


Should be doing a whole list of things

But it made my head hurt and I wished my brain had wings


To fly away, over the waves and into the trees

Butterfly, bird or even a bee


Their flight is work too, always searching for food

But not worrying about clothes, just soaring in the nude


If that were true, could I stop for a hug

Or should I just keep going and and just be a bug


A bird might be nice, at least they have a nest

High above the ground, a safe place to rest
