Life’s Perfect Blend – A Firefly Fields Poem

Life’s Perfect Blend

Life is a recipe of flavors, both salty and sweet,

A delicate dance where opposites meet.

Savor the moments, let the contrasts unfold,

Balancing the salty and sweet, a story to be told.

In the bitterness, find resilience’s song,

Sweetness echoes when the days grow long.

Together they create a harmonious rhyme,

Life’s perfect blend, a taste so sublime.

Let the Contrasts Unfold

A Beautiful Old Farmstead with incomparable charm, requiring endless love, energy, and attention to bring about the timeless sparkle.

The plight and struggle of the honey bee; beekeeper and bee relying now on each other for survival; the sting of colony loss and the sweetness of learning and the nectar harvest.

Once a sad dumping ground covered in garbage and weeds, given a little effort and muscle, now a beautiful honey bee sanctuary protecting bees during the bitter cold winter.

The every day struggles of planting, cultivating, and harvesting an organic crop…the worries, the endless hard work, the unexpected disappointment of a hail storm; the beautiful collaboration of family and the contribution of diversity, life, flavor and goodness to the world.
