The mini-bumblebee

Hovering around the brightest flowers

Fighting against the hollow winds

I welcome you, the mighty bumblebees.

Though they may seem terrifying,

They always do their best for the people they love.

While the others target brightly colored and blooming flowers in the meadow,

A very timid and endearing little bumblebee targets the bud that’s been separated from the rest.

She waits for this bud to bloom, no matter their surrounding conditions.

Love is seeing each other as we grow.

Love is when one’s happiness is more important than one's own.

Love is realizing that, despite it all, you’ll find the light in the dark.

Together.

As time flew, she taught the flower that if being soft and kind was a weakness, it would never grow.

And the flower taught the mini-bumblebee that the key to freedom is to let go.

Because even the things we love could easily harm us with no hesitation.

As the flower bloomed,

And as the mini-bumblebee grew,

They’ve become inseparable.

They’ve become stronger than ever.

Together.

Sometimes, I wonder

Even though there was an endless garden right in front of the mini-bumblebee,

Why did she choose the vulnerable bud in a crowd of blooming flowers?
