“Introversion” Jacob Taylor Unseen fire subsists love’s presence, Which impacts the hearts of all, A heart being emotional essence. This fire scorches and flicks about, As it rests before me in a line. The line lifts smoke as religion, devout.

Love is this fiery line before

By Kristen Rasmussen  Friendly Little Pollinators      I remember learning several years ago that bees were dying. They needed help to flourish more than anything, so my mother and I decided to give a helping hand.
