To Make a Prairie by Emily Dickinson


My Wisteria in Spring---breakfast for a fat, hungry bumble bee.



To Make a Prairie
By Emily Dickinson

To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
one clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
if bees are few.

  5. I used to put wisteria blossoms on salads. Then, I read that they were poisonous, so I stopped.

  7. It makes things seem so minimal and simple, doesn't it? Just one bee. Just one clover. One prayer. One kiss. One revelation.

One may have a blazing hearth in one's soul and yet no one ever come to sit by it. Passers-by see only a wisp of smoke from the chimney and continue on the way. ~Vincent Van Gogh~ Pull up a chair...
