The Honey Bee and Me

I was thinking back to when I was a child running barefoot in the yard and the first time I was stung by a bee!
It was an experience I will never forget.......My Mother slathered my foot with a cool paste of baking soda and I hopped around on foot for the rest of the day.
Once was enough for me;
After that:
In those fun filled Summer days I looked before I leaped.
Running through the sprinkler meant finding a spot in the yard without clover and the buzzing of the honey bees in it.

Sadly now, there are rarely any honey bees to be found.
Science had been trying to figure out why for the longest time?
Be growers would release millions, only to have them disappear and die?
What on earth was [or is] killing the "Honey Bees?"

They now have the very sad answer.
Pollution.
The Honey Bee's little sensors can not smell the flowers anymore because pollution in our air is drowning out the scent they follow to the flowers.

This is going to cause a huge host of problems and I will not go there now.

Please pray for the Honey Bee.

God bless.
