Busy with love , the bumble bee
philanders through the petalled spring
& lights on Heliodora's skin.
And have you left the stamen-cup
to tell me Cupid's arrow stings?
till rueful Heart heaves up:
'Enough'?
Thou loved of lovers, Bee, buzz off -
what zestful petals wait your tupping!
Such news to me was never new
whose honey's long been mixed with rue.
