The dandy bee lion
Little bee, busy bee, buzzing on this flower bright,
I think you always do what's right.
You hum around on your little yellow throne
until it's time to fly on home.
I think it's cool you dance around and do your thing;
your busy dancing makes the flower sing,
and when you're done the blossom has been fertilized.
In a day or two we'll get a dandelion surprise.
Your little buzzing celebration makes this field a brighter place,
because the dandy lion sheds its yellow for a fuzzy face;
wispy dandy seeds will scatter in the whirring wind,
and next year sport their dandy blooms again.
Selah.
