illustration friday (fragile)
What power and resiliency our planet has! And how teeming with life. And yet, that life can be so fragile. When the honey bees recover (as I believe they will), I will watch them with even greater fascination and affection. I share a name with them, you see. Deborah comes from the Hebrew word for bee, and in spite of my nervousness around insects in general, I've felt a kinship with bees since childhood.

Debbie, I had a few close encounters with bees as a child, and was afraid of them for decades.. Now I just figure the worst I'll get is a sting (I'm not allergic), so, not a big deal; of course we don't go out of our way to upset them). I think they are so beautiful, and they're always working away!! I pray that they do come back strong again. Yes, the earth does seem resilient, in spite of our mistreatment.
ReplyDeleteI really love your artwork in general and this one in particular.. Sigh !
Hi, Debbie, I know your feeling, "BEE my Baby."

"The bees are in bloom" I simply love this sentence.
