How dirty
does a bumblebee look!
He looks even dirtier
when he sits on
the delicate and graceful petals
of a flower of beauty,
and sips its juice,
giving the impression
of being an exploiter...
But the same flower blooms
even more gleefully,
as the feeling becomes intense,
as if its long-cherished desire
has been fulfilled...
The bumblebee seems to be
its long-lost friend,
who admires its beauty,
who hums a merry love tune,
who pollinates its pollen grains
and disperses its seeds,
while sipping its nectar,
thereby multiplying its progeny...
Large hairy appearance
of bumblebee is not so important
for the flower,
whose own beauty attracted
the bumblebee...
What it looks like
is not necessarily what it is,
utility is more important
than the external appearance,
handsome is as handsome does...
