The prompt this week for the One Single Impression haiku group is flowering. This photo is a shot I took last year standing under a wild pear tree in my neighbor’s yard. I know that many farmers and gardeners have been worried about a lack of bees, but there was no problem here. This tree was buzzing. To read more haiku on this subject check on OSI above.
The wild pear blossoms are absolutely georgous!!!
No wonder the bees are so enthusiastic.
Congratulations on receiving the Arte y Pico Award.
Love your photos.
We seem to have plenty of bees here in Upstate New York, too… and I don’t know if it’s my imagination or not, but they seem HUGE.
Beautiful photo and poem.
I have never thought of bees as being comforting! Nice Job! Beautiful ku!
What a beautiful photo and it makes me happy to know the bees are busy.
I like the paradox of “comforting bees”. excellent job in blending the haiku into ypur photograph.
Beautiful haiku and picture
Such lovely blossoms! It’s incredible to imagine that humankind depends on creatures so small!
– My mother would not agree that comfort could be found in the drone of bees!
Beautiful. It is comforting, isn’t it?
May the bees thrive and thrive and thrive.
Really nice. I wonder if there’s a way for you to make the font more readable, though. Unless it’s just my aging eyes. Anyway, nice ‘ku and lovely photo. It’s especially good to know that some bee hives are doing just fine!
On my hike/clean up volunteering Saturday, I was astonished by the constant sound of the busy, busy bees. It was remarkable. Lovely haiku and beautiful picture.
In summer, when the thyme is blooming, it’s almost impossible to get into the herb garden. The plants are literally covered with bees! It’s quite a sight and the sound of the buzzing gets quite loud.
The bees to such an important job too. lovely image and ‘ku.
Refreshing!
I was looking forward to your offering on this prompt. I’m not disappointed! Beautiful image and words. Wild pear… what a concept.
Incredible! Love the comforting bees and the pear blossoms are exquisite - Great post!
Beautiful, Sandy! Funny we both thought of the pear tree.
Lovely. Our bees are buzzing, too. No problems here, either.
beautiful, bees are comforting you’re right, good to see yours thriving
Beautiful photo and ku. Sorry by I hate bugs and alleric to bee venom.
