A BEEKEEPER'S LAMENT
We've had a bad year out here on the farm.
A salesman took my wife;
A twister took the barn;
Coyotes ate the little pigs;
Some gypsies stole my plow;
Grasshopper's stripped the Milo;
Lighting killed my cow;
The house caught fire, a total loss;
The banker took my truck;
The IRS sent a little note; it seems I shorted them a buck.
I'm sitting here eyeing my beehive.
I don't know, but I feel sure that new queen done mated with a tumblebug.
And my hive is full of manure.
