Here you will find a record of all things fiction and the thoughts generated through clear lenses. All posts older than 12/16/2013 are works of thirst-quenching fiction you should explore freely, while everything onwards becomes what has struck the bell in my brain and turned into words. Enjoy!

Cause For Alarm
by Brent Danley Jones

There is a fatty fat bumblebee on the window sill
Next to the flowers and infront of the trees
Under the shutter brought in with the breeze

After adventuring a thousand miles
He comes to stop and rest a while

The eve grows young as the days turns old
He must arrive home before onsets the cold

Baby spots him first, lets out a squeal
A tasty morsel sized snack before next meal

Little Sarah notes next, gives off a shout
Letting all know a bumblebee is about

Little Danny sees him now without fear
He runs for his weapons, enemy is near

Momma has not a clue what to do
She flees the room in panic, nothing new

Daddy's now got his newspaper ready
He arches the media back, holds steady

There is a fatty fat bumblebee on the window sill
So much trouble by one bee was bred

He starts up and his motor and away he fled
