A day in the Orange valley – Alshaad Kara

Bees crashing,
Fights gaining wind,
I feel the stings in my legs…

Hunting down my queen in a slow pace,
Fertilising her at one go,
She goes flying by mating flight.
Disappearing as she would.

Bleeding with each beeping,
I feel the stings in my legs…

Misbeliever!
I am ejected from my nest!
Only for the sake of bee keeping!

Another mating flight ahead,

I fuel anew.



Alshaad Kara is a poet who writes from his heart. His poems were published in an anthology, “PS: It’s Still Poetry – An Anthology of Contemporary Poetry from Around the World” and a journal, “The Suburban Review Issue #25: Juice”.
