All I wanted to do, was get food my family wanted. Set of my journey as usual, caressed by the warm air as I took off, searching for the brightest of flowers. The day was rather unusual, mama earth had lots to offer today. For a while I was lost by the brain numbing fragrance that I had in offer. Lost by the immense pleasure, noticed that I had came too far from my conscious territory.
I remember my elders who asked us never to go in to the "No Bees Land", I was not able to understand, I had never sensed anything so beautiful. I said "darn the old bees , I will never let them know,.... aaah look at that big bright flower, never seen any thing like that before, lets suck the food out of it.. ". There I went in an unknown direction to treat the find of my life. I flapped my wings as hard as I can and beezed towards that wonderful big bright flower. As I beezed near I sensed something not flowerish. It didn't have that distinct fragrance, anyways I beezed towards that flower and. ...... .. . ... .. .. ... "thummbp", I hit something but I cannot see it, I tried again even harder..... "dhup".......... . .. "oh bee mother my leg", yeah!! I hurt one of my legs and was tossed over to a side. I felt bee mother saying that I could still do it.
This time I beezed steadily towards bright flower and.. ..... and there I was, the not so flowerish brightest flower right down there I beezed towards it and "thump", "again, holy bee mother, how many times, what is this! why am I not able to touch the flower!, Why am I not able to suck the food out of it!". Lots of questions crossed over my antennas. I could sense the bright
shiny thing in sky moving.................
For a while now I was kicking, scratching that I could get some food but in vain.....suddenly everything around me started to shake and in no matter of time the not so flowerish thing had vanished in to thin air. "oh bee mother, please forgive me, I made a bad thing coming to the "No Bees Land", I have to get out of here, I need to go home". I started to flap my wings and "thump" , there it was again, the invisible thing that stopped me earlier. ....... .... After a lot of "thumps and dhups" I had broken one of my other legs and one of my wings.
I kept trying, I kept trying, I still had hope as I could see the big two legged things moving around who often burned our houses and stole our food, but this invisible thing never let me away. "Why in the name of bee mother is this happening to me, yeah I know I deserved this, I should have returned the minute I knew that I was in "No Bees Land" ". .. . ..
And then out of no where came this not so flowerish big flower again, this time I grabbed it so tight and it moved so violently that it threw me away, .... I was in air, gathering all my beenergy I started to flap my wings and as I beezed away swearing never to return, I saw this big moving two legged thing holding the not so flowerish thing, I couldn't understand.
