A rose and bee. A me and a thee




Once upon a Rose
There sat a little bee
Then it flew away
And that ended their story.*





I like this little poem. It is short and simple, and it reminds me of The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (y Fitzgerald). Discerning one's will know why.

*Jointly composed by my Thee and me.



Edit:-


After much deliberation, another possible version of the poem could be


"Once upon a Rose


There sat a little bee


Then it flew away


Thus ended their story"
