A dandy named Cyrus McDill

Grew stately atop a small hill.

She bees thought him sweet

Swarmed him, head to feet

He continued to flirt with them still.

They covered him, petal to stem

“O Cyrus! You’re such a gem!”

He fled with a frown

Right out of his town

And learned not to dress such in the glen.

Cyrus began a bee farm

No frills, but it ran like a charm

He sought the she bees

They flew there as they pleased

Out of the way and buzzed without harm.
