Bees polling
every flower.

7 Poems
cold morning –
the bus shuddering
In the quiet house
I love my kids
again
hum of traffic
a blotting paper moon
birds chatter
the cat sunning itself
leaves them to it
in the schoolyard
a dozen sons
without my glasses
above neat houses
even the sun bored

Love “Polling”!
Not sure what it means.
