An Altercation

I had an altercation today
was not a truly a big thing
but I must admit, I felt it
feeling sorta like a big sting

There was a kind of rumble
a wild flapping and swinging
the rose buds were no protection
damn, it felt like some stinging.

In the yard tending to plants
while humming and singing
 a swarm of bees appeared
chose me for their winging

I had an altercation today
with not so nice a bit of flinging
this swarm of bees was aggressive
and I lost the fight to their stinging.

A quite differnet entry. Altercations of any kind are usually unpleasant. Too much hurt.

Always, Carly :)
