Parthenogenesis : A Filmpoem. Spring Equinox Honeybee Swarm

A filmpoem about our Spring Equinox swarm. Finally, they flew. Out of the hive and over the trees, tumbling through air. He could hear them from the house, he said, when he called me and I came running, camera slung over one shoulder, pulling on a veil. As I stumbled towards the already-alighting swarm. They did not travel far, just down the hill a bit from their sisters. We followed the sound, excited, triumphant humming, already resting like spun sugar along the trunk. They stayed, I sighed. I had been afraid that we would lose them. A swarm can take half the hive, carrying them far away. But they are like family, I say and in dreams they tell me that they want to stay. Will we help them? Tucking them in after dark, I bless them. These ten thousand sleepy bees who have chosen to leave, and yet stay. Dividing themselves in a perfect act of parthenogenesis. The virgin birth of a newly- created colony. Bzzz. Bz Bz. Bzzzzzzzzzz. Poem and Film by Helen iles Music : Time Alone by David Renda at www.FesliyanStudios.com
