Mother went to the glistening sea
To milk the water dwelling glistening bees
She used the bee-milk to make the strongest glistening rum
And if you think this all hokum
You won’t be wrong

    I’d use the “bee-milk” to make mead, myself. So, yeah, hokum . . . as intended! 🙂

    I saw a bee upon a flower.
    Its mighty stinger made me cower.
    It gathered honey by the sac,
    And gave the flower’s pollen back,
    And so it proved its flower power!
