Oregano Bees: medicinal bounty

Upon her return
from a summer journey, Wyile
Widow contemplates

Late July bursts with
purple oregano blooms
buzz of busy bees

culinary delight

Lavender thousand
stars top healing stalks and leaves
pollen rich for bees

blessed pollinator

Oregano spreads far
spicy mountain bright
the bee’s knees of medicine

perennial purveyor
