Bundled in a garden
Fallen leaves from the same tree
Guarded by a warden
Buzzing bees that are free.
Hearts that are hardened
Caged by the red sea
Flowing from the roots
Of jealousy and envy.
Sisters over flowers
The bees and the pollens
Stealing sunshine from their summers
Hissing snake in the garden.
