Honey Bee



Place a beehive on my grave

and let the honey soak through.

When I'm dead and gone,

That's what I want from you.

The streets of heaven are gold and sunny,

but I'll stick with my plot and a pot of honey.

Place a beehive on my grave

and let the honey soak through.

(A poem from "The Secret Life of Bees", a novel that I am reading recently)
