I loved to get up before the sunrise
To hear the prayers echoing in the sky
To arrive feeling the sun kissing my skin
That familiar noise coming from within
Being away from them was the hardest thing
My love for caring and what it brings
To look after them, all the hive
Broke my heart, when I was deprived
How I would watch the workers travel so far
Foraging lemon blossoms for their sweet nectar
I would nurture them, look after their health
For me it was them, there was nothing else
I loved to harvest, to collect the golden dew
Scraping carefully, that soft silky residue
Their job was to feed us, to pollinate the land
I would look after them with nothing but my hands
