Beekeepers
scarlet clover
sowed in October
in the orchard twice;
try and keep the hens out,
they pick every green leaf
and totally ignore
barley by the hellebore,
which grows now quite tall -
but what will the bees? eh?
when all the clover's gone?
comb honey
brings no money...
sez the Michigan Farmer;
but comb sales have been brisk...
all's left is candled junk...
and common sense for fools.
