bumblebees...

bumblebees...
before the butterflies
the lady bugs
or the fireflies...
the congenial beginnings
super friendly
casual conversation
sparked smiles
little giggles
likeness growing
commonalities found
growth towards interrelation....
or just infatuation
flickerings of a lighter
before the flame
simple science
formulating complex chemistry
or not...
bumblebees...
collecting nectar
for the possibilities
of making honey
but not yet settling...
feelings fluttering...
before anything gets "comfortable"
a slight crush, a faint fancy
or more just the potential
to get there...

it's buzzing...
like bumblebees...
