Open in the middle of July
Sticky, moist petals
thick, sweet nectar
lures in each greedy bee
covers them in pollen
as they tickle her insides
twisting filaments
tangle in ecstasy
licking stigmas
drip in thirsty tongues
plays that give birth to life
performed on her fragrant stage
And before one bee leaves
another comes
she opens wider
for each visitor
with softened lips
begging for more
