C. P. Sharma - A Bumble Bee

A Bumble Bee

This, my body is made of clay
It sheds off a gram each day
It started its journey as a lump
On the watery surface bumped

I gave it the fabric that holds
The beauty of mind and mold
Made it up in radiant colors
Lighted with grace and valor

Nurtured it with flesh and blood
Stunning ornate gems in it I stud
I made it my favorite doll
Rolled up into pride scroll

Since it lost the link with me
It turned into a bumble bee.

C. P. Sharma
