Taste of Life

Nothing's there - only death!

Buzzing hard to find a flower,

buzzing round from hour to hour.

 

Oh-no! it's gone - inside it crawls.

It can smell the sweet smell,

But nothing's there, at the bottom of the jar.

 

It is stuck in the sticky mess - almost blood.

Buzzing for life.

It can smell the sweet smell,

But nothing's there - only death!
