Bug Basket

by

Natalie Jones, 4th grade Badger Road Elementary

One bright noon day,

where a tall tree towered,

a single buzzing bee,

found a huge woven basket,

should I go or should I stay?

should I tell or should I wait?

so many choices I can make,

so I decided I don't care,

the colony can wait I thought,

it's me I should worry about,

so I advanced inside to see,

what lingered in wait for me.
