[hometext] => I have a fear of wasps ever since an incident when I was a child, when I sat on one.This is just a humourous view of the situation.One day I might just understand their purpose.........perhaps
[bodytext] => From summer skies they haunt my days, those silk winged terror squads Searching out sweet sugar beacons, lured on by the scents They plague this land for what cruel reason, will I ever know ? To me as fitting as piercing thorns in the garden of paradise When Summer sun tints lighter shades across the lush green lawn And wandering bee hums mystically in cups of delicate flowers The other drones more menacing, with whisper shocks my core Stripe shirted traveller just the same, if only the same behaved I remember the trauma vividly and shudder even now Backseat victim the beast became, squashed flat against my skin Though life had passed, the sting remained, embedded like a knife Yet Dad refused to stop the car, my cries on deafened ears The naturalists among us would declare it has a place Integral piece in the grand design, a link in the natural chain If fatal moment took them all, not a single one I'd mourn Was Mother Nature concentrating when she created this ?
