1. The Doctor and the Bee 

Said the Bee to the Doctor:  

"I've been sneezing every day  

As I fly collecting nectar  

From the flowerz and the hay."

"You're allergical to pollenz,"  

Said the Doctor to the Bee,  

"All your sneezingz are rezulting  

From the flowerz, do you see?

Az you fly collecting nectar  

To make honey taste so sweet  

Dusty pollenz all get caught  

Upon your fuzzy furry feet.

Sniff hibiscus, thistle, dandelion  

Chryzanthemum or roze  

And your proboscis will become  

Inflamed or worse, God only knowz!

For a bee to be allergical  

Iz rare. I've heard of none  

But I'm signing you off work  

Until the Summer seazon'z done."

2. The Bee and her Family 

"You're what?" said her family  

When the Bee told them the news.  

(They didn't care for modern doctors  

With their modern doctor views.)

"Just who'll collect your nectar  

While your lying there in bed  

Complaining of the Sneezingz  

With your eyez all itchy red?"

"I'm allergical to pollenz  

I'm not skiving just for fun.  

It's best if I avoid the Flowerz  

Till the summer seazon'z done."

"If you will not be a worker bee

We still have to survive.

You must sign up az a soldier

For the Glory of the Hive!"

"But I've never been a fighter,"  

Said the Bee: "I cannot fight.  

At the first sight of a Hornet,  

I'm the first bee to take flight."

3. The General and the Bee 

"If you want to be a soldier,"  

Said the giant General Bee,  

"You must explain your reazonz,  

For you're small, that's plain to see.

"I can't collect the nectar  

Due to itchy streaming eyez.  

My family sayz that I must fight  

Despite my obvious lack of size."

"Have you ever seen a Hornet swarm?"  

The General asked the Bee.  

"Imagine ninety monster-wasps
