Emily Dickinson
Original -
To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.
I was born on the prairies (go ahead.. you know you want to say it) Grande Prairie. I have lived in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba and with bees,... dropping like flies I thought this was appropriate.
