A bulb erupts beneath the Earth
Hoping it’ll be giving birth
And using photosynthetic power
It pushes out a beautiful flower
That sways around within the breeze
Trying to seduce honeybees
To land on it
And drop thereon a bunch of pollen
That from another flower has fallen
Cuz that is all it will need
To make a seed
The plan isn’t always a success
And that’s the reason why, I guess
Bulbs put energy storage in high gear
To be able to try it again next year
