Bee, why do you forsake the flora,
nudging the flesh of Heliodora?
To warn me nectared beauty brings
Eros’s bitter-blissful stings?
Return to sipping flowers – go!
Your message I already know.
(L4 I initially had "bitter piercing", but changed it after reading Julie's post above; L5 had flower-supping, which I then abandoned as being a hyphen too far.)
