words spill like leaves -
bright ink to misty covid
little lighthouses

beacons spell come hither
where hope banishes shadows -
where faith feeds seeds

daylight comes -
again and again regardless
night and her moon

she lingers
diaphanous in azure -
later shine she must

We really need a bee appreciation day as their existence is under threat with the way our agricultural habits are fast reducing their numbers. .
