The Humble Bumblebee--By Robert Hewett Sr.---United States

The Humble Bumblebee

Watch the odd shaped Bumblebee dart,
body too fat and wings too short .
scientists say it is plain to see
this bee is no flying machine.
But watch it hovering so still,
a helicopter can’t match its skill.
Now it darts like a streak of light,
this Bee knows how to fly all right.
Wow it makes flying look easy,
Wings so fast they make it breezy.
This Bee is proof for you and me,
that science can’t top God’s Bumblebee.
Friends may say your dream can’t be done,
try it and you will look real dumb,
remind them of the Bumblebee.
God’s proof the impossible can be.
