Humble B. Bumble : 13. Friday night will bee our night for dancing

 
 
Humble was exhausted after his first week of work.  
He had helped people before, here and there,  
But today it seemed like on his back he carried the Earth.  
His body was aching, there was no mistaking,  
It had really been a tough week.  
So he would toughen up, work harder next time;  
He could no longer afford to bee weak.  
 
 
The life of a drone seemed quite simple from a distance,  
But the reality was you covered a lot of distance.  
Flying around all day searching for the nectar  
And you couldn’t have a day off, no matter what the weather.  
There was always more pollen to collect,  
So it was not a job Humble could afford to neglect.  
The hive needed nectar, so every day he would look far and wide,  
And on every flower head.  
 
 
He worked on his own, but there were plenty of other drones,  
Who were usually looking around the same plants.  
So the days went quite quick, you did your bit  
And at the end of the week, you went out to dance!  
 
 
Humble was so sure he would meet someone he could fall in love with,  
As soon as he went in and sat down, guaranteed!  
But although his friends were there and he had a good laugh,  
He saw Bee-Real meet his new girlfriend and that was that.  
Blondebee had lots of attention from another man.  
Tiny Dancer was dancing with yet another bee.  
Aw man!  Thought Humble, everyone is happy but me man!  
And that night he walked home, a lonely little bee.  
 
 
And so it continued, each week the same;  
No love for Humble, he felt so lame.  
Even Prince found a girlfriend and he never even spoke!  
Humble thought this is beyond the joke!  
The next week Bee-Real bought his girlfriend with him.  
Lovebee was her name and she had a beautiful grin.  
 
 
One night Tiny Dancer and Blondebee shared a kiss,  
But Blondebee told Humble, it didn’t mean a thing,  
Because he was the one she really wanted to bee with  
And so, like a fool for love, Humble dived right in…  
 
 
Blondebee soon became Humbles first girlfriend…  
Is this where the story ends…?
