A Magic Bee

One day I woke up and looked outside The sun was shinning the birds were singing . I got out of bed went to the bathroom brushed my teeth . I started hearing in my head buzz buzz buzz I couldn’t figure out why . So I went to the cupboard to grab cereal and what do my eyes see is Cheerios So I decide okay Cheerios it is . I go and get a bowl spoon and milk I prepare my bowl of cereal . I decide it’s a beautiful summer morning . Let me take my breakfast out to the picnic table where the breeze is perfect and the smell is wonderfully peaceful . I go out to the picnic table and look to see where to sit I decide to put my back to the back yard and I’m able to look forward at all the flowers and bushes . I sit down and begin to eat my breakfast as I’m injoying this amazing sunshine and breeze and our beautiful flowers I take my spoon put it into the bowl to grab my Cheerios and milk and bring it up to put it in my mouth to take a bite or put the spoon into my mouth and all of a sudden a bee lands on my spoon . He not only land but he stands there on the tip of my spoon and decides to waves to me. I look and I look . I freeze in amazement I began to look at the sun and flowers thinking okay what is this some magical fantasy. So the bee looks at me he waves and says hi with his little bee wing . I look at the bee and says hi . What is going on . He begins to tell me I’m a magic be and I have special powers . So I say please share your story . So the bee looks at me and says what’s your name I tell the Bee my name is Angele So the bee says okay Angele What would you like my name to be So I began to think well Bee how about Aphee and the says okay Angele what would you like me to be a male or female So I began to think could this bee both . So I asked the Bee would you be interested in play both male and female . The bee said I would love that. The Bee began to explain I was put on the earth to make everything okay . “We carry more than honey,” he said. “We carry messages. From the earth. From the parts of you you’ve forgotten.So the bee looks up at me and says So Miss Angele your not a bee you don’t have wings what do you do So I tell the bee I’m a human and I live here in this house I point to our house so the Bee turns around and he looks and says oh your house is where all my friends and relatives love to make there homes on I mean our hives I said yes . I shared with the bee how much I love working in my yard I love raking I love trimming my trees . The bee looked at me and said Miss Angele your yard is so beautiful. I told the bee Thank You . The Bee looks at me and says okay can you put me down on your table so we can chat some more and you can finish your breakfast . As I put him down he just sits there and watches me eat my breakfast . I finish my breakfast and the bee decides to hop on to the edge of the bowl and says Angele please tell me your life. I say Bee I don’t know where to start I’m in the process of writing some books and I’m in therapy. So the bee says Angele what kinda life did you have I told bee it’s full of trauma and ugliness and I was able to turn it around by getting married and having two boys . The bee said Angele that’s a huge accomplishment you should be so proud. I say to bee Thank You . The Bee says Miss Angele you and I have a lot in common we make things better and beautiful. I believe your a beautiful person in side and out and you have a huge heart . Bee I have to say my therapist says the same thing . Okay Bee what’s next . Miss Angele let’s sit here and just love on the flowers the sunshine the blue sky’s the breeze, let’s not stress about what’s next I will always be your Bee. I can appear when ever you want me too I’m a magic bee and when ever you need me I’m here see I also have a weapon it’s my stinger and if you come across a bad time in your life you can call upon me and I will use my stinger to take care of it .
