LIFE 'S LESSONS
Life’s Lesson
by Bhuwan Joshi
Honey bees gather sweetness of the flowers
Fly so many miles day and night
Their home of wax, a gem of architecture
Their engineering a lesson for us upright
But what is inspiring is how they live
Together without fighting with each other
They have a civil code and a sense of discipline
Incessantly working in their capacity as worker
When the honey is collected in small stores
Where their no window and not a door
They don't let anybody come to the fore
Intruder gets their venom n lies on the floor
We should learn this lesson from the busy bee
How to protect ourselves and live happily
How to protect ourselves and live happily ...

We have lot to learn from the world outside ... the fight for survival makes each living thing to invent ways and work for it in a co operative and diligent way...
