A great picture, I loved the picture of the peony and the bee, Gypsy. Your words were great because they showed the effect that the flower has on the bees. Blessed be n hugs.

Comment from AP Apgar
I like you poem - a good Haiku - about a flower in nature = giving it a personality - flirting with the bee population and being fickle - allowing them to have their way - drink their fill and get drunk on her nectar -
very clever - nicely done = good job

Comment from Jasmine Girl
I like this beautiful peony in Chinese painting style. Haha. Its nectar made bee drunk. I like the alliteration in the second line. I hope my peonies will bloom soon.
Well done.

Gypsy,
Those poorly informed bees, can't they read the signs of flirtation and the leaves?
Good combo with selected image and your color scheme.

Nicely composed, Gypsy. The voluptuous flower in full bloom draws the comparison to a beautiful woman with many admirers, intoxicated with desire. Thanks for sharing and for your author notes on the 5/7/5 form.
Stay safe and blessed

Comment from lyenochka
I like the symbolism you used here. The peony is like an attractive woman who is "flirtatious and fickle." The bees are like the men that are falling all over her as if "drunk with nectar."

Thank you very much for your excellent review. I didn't know about the symbolism lol I write haiku that come straight from my heart and I guess there is some subconscious symbolism going on. It's my muse's fault.

Another fine poem, Gypsy---I like it, plant sex--err--maybe that's just my take on it? My mind is shallow and always goes straight to the gutter and stays there!

Hello Gypsy :)
I enjoyed the imagery in your 5/7/5 poem - The merry bee, flirting with the peony - very sweet! I also enjoyed the alliteration in line two.
Lovely!
Best wishes as always, Debra :)
