One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.”

Does not concern the bee;
A clover, any time, to him
Is aristocracy.”

Crowds of grasshoppers skip at our feet,
Crowds of larks at their matins hang over,
Thanking the Lord for a life so sweet.”

By the garden gate,
And the bees about her hover,
But the robins wait.
Sing, robins, sing,
Sing a roundelay,—
'Tis the latest flower of Spring
Coming with the May!”

“One can no more approach people without love than one can approach bees without care. Such is the quality of bees…”

“The flower doesn’t dream of the bee. It blossoms and the bee comes.”

“It takes a bee 10,000,000 trips to collect enough nectar to make 1 pound of honey.”

“I am the bee that will make honey for all.”

“My banks they are furnish’d with bees,
Whose murmur invites one to sleep.”
