POEM STARTER
‘Bees offer honey far more readily than they sting.’
Write a poem that begins with this line. What themes can this metaphor reflect?
Passivity
Bees offer honey
far more readily than they sting.
A common misconception
Tends to lead to suffering.
Do not provoke them,
And see what they bring.
You’ll find that leaving them alone
Is a very good thing.
Just like letting wolves be will allow them to sing.
Silence can make the impoverished
Easily become a king.
Bees offer honey
far more readily than they sting.
