The Vibrant Versifier

Swirling around a crimson rose,
sat a bee writhed in smiles,
on a petal nice with shine,
slipped to her core!
Aha! Slid to her core!

“How dare you come and kiss? ”
Tell me, “ Where from are you thief? ”
Answer didn’t give the swooning bee;
Sank low to quench his thirst with glee.
Buzzing there with bent knee,
smacking on the lips free;
hummed a tune to please the rose;
fainted with a doze.
Aha! Fainted with a doze!

“I’m a honey-maker with verve
and live in that fine hive.
Never tell lies to my love.
To you build a palace in the bough! ”
When the bee, said these words,
Which he said so, two weeks back,
the rose with a wry smile,
closed her petals;
at dusk squeezed him to writhe.

Note: can be sung in the tune of a Tamil film song:
“Manam Ennum Medai Maelae”.
