LaNds Of miLk + hOnEY

It trickleD like hoNey, when
honEy knew fRee, for honey
reMemBered its roOts with
the bEE, knew that iN pasT
tiMe it's home was nOt jar,
sigHed at its fate...all alonE
and sO fAr...
Away from the CooL breeZe,
and the baRk of gOOd trees,
the buzZ of the tribes anD the
thick sticky teaSe and it
wondered why faTe had
fRownEd on it So, because
noW it had nothinG and
nowheRe to Go, sO it triCKled
like hOney, because wHat elsE
wAs lefT as it waited in miseRy to ReturN to the sHelF

Marion, sweeter than honey and a most careful read of a poem that flows sooo slowly but delivers its message at the final hurdle.
A real slow burner of a read so to read properly and dare not miss anything in its words⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Loved reading this and your end conclusion is poetry treasure!
Thank you for writing and sharing and  five stars and pinned for another slow but worthy reread.
And I wish you well.❤️

Oh I love these lines! They are as thick and sweet as honey itself. These words ooze from the page into the reader's mind. Great work ⚘ x
