He caught my scent on a windy day; My skin had the taste of lemongrass. I was afraid at first when he landed, but that was short-lived. I did not panic.
It wasn't invasion but aromatic invitation accepted instinctively. He searched this surface with mind on his purpose, and I watched silently.
Across my hand and around my fingers, he tickled in search of something sweet. I giggled, too, and dared not move lest he consider me an enemy.
I am not a flower.
Not his usual company.
But today, he came for me.
And so, a flower I am to a bee.
