Here is song number 19 of 50 for my summer songwriting challenge, called "Honeybee".
there's no place like home
it's where i want to be
our quiet little honeycomb
me and my honeybee
i buzz because of you
i'm here b/c i'm sweet on you
i think you were heaven sent
and i'm glad you landed here
and that you could make a beeline
b/c your path was clear
now i buzz b/c of you
i'm here b/c i'm sweet on you
you share all your nectar with me
oh you make me feel like a queen
my one and only honeybee
now i buzz b/c of you
i'm here b/c i'm sweet--
i'm here cuz you're so sweet
i'm here b/c i'm sweet on you
it's where i want to be
our quiet little honeycomb
me and my honeybee
i buzz because of you
i'm here b/c i'm sweet on you
i think you were heaven sent
and i'm glad you landed here
and that you could make a beeline
b/c your path was clear
now i buzz b/c of you
i'm here b/c i'm sweet on you
you share all your nectar with me
oh you make me feel like a queen
my one and only honeybee
now i buzz b/c of you
i'm here b/c i'm sweet--
i'm here cuz you're so sweet
i'm here b/c i'm sweet on you

that's quite a hobby! oh my goodness, it makes me nervous to think of all those bees buzzing around my house.....even if they ARE hard at work keeping that queen happy!! but, the real honey of the day is your sweet song.....it's fabulous, kerri!! xox, ;))
Kerri I bought that dress very recently (within the past couple weeks) at a private event he held, but it is at shopbop (I think the link's on the blog). They only have it in black and it's a part of the new fall line so I bet more colors will show up. It's not on his site at all. Watch at Nordstrom and Shopbop - I'll let you known when I spot it again.
ps- i always joke about needing a bee suit for sample sales and whenever I'm around children. nice aren't i?
xo,

oh my goodness, i wanted to be a beekeeper once...this is a wonderful post! and your song is sooooo sweet!
per my blog and the mosaic...this is a little house we stayed in 4 yrs. ago..it was very artistic, the young man who didn't finish tiling, would rather be surfing than working, tee hee...the pic was of the crab...there were some stuck under the stove and we accidently caught one on fire, not knowing they were around till later...we got such a kick out of where we would find the next one each day!!! xo
Such a beee-utiful post, Kerri. Isn't it amazing how many bees there were in that hive and, like you say, managed by only ONE queen!
Absolutely adored your new song - gorgeous words and cheerful, catchy tune.
Hugs xx
Hi Kerri! Gorgeous song, and a really lovely voice you have too - beautiful. I do musical theatre in my spare time when I get a chance, and enjoy it very much. I also teach performing arts part time at primary school level.... lots of fun! Music is a huge part of my life, couldn't live happily without it. Going to check out your CDs now.
Linda. xox :)
PS. 80,000 bees.... WOW!! Amazing.
What a lovely song! I admire anyone who can play an instrument AND sing at the same time. I play the piano quite well but there is NO way I can do both simultaneously!
Great song, and interesting post! My high school boyfriend's father was a beekeeper. It's fascinating stuff, but not for me. I'm highly allergic and would be inside with you. :-)
That's so sweet! I myself would be so scared of the bees.
Your friend's mom sounds like a rather cool lady! Bees are such fascinating creatures, however I couldn't quite imagine getting that close to them either, much like you!
I love this sweet song, it's really lovely!
That job would freak me out as I am terrified of bees. Your song is so sweet though! Have a great week! XOXSandy
Beekeeper is awesome!! That is such a wonderful hobby. I really adore your song and singing so much!! Thanks so much for sharing. Have a lovely merry happy week and love to you!
thanx for the snail comment...i thought is was so cute..here's this beautiful fountain and there "he/she" was!!! xo
my hubby has an incredible fascination with honey bees. If we had the opportunity to keep bees, he WOULD NOT HESITATE. I, like you, would be a distant supporter ;)
And I agree with Jacqueline-really LOVE your voice
WOW - the bees are amazing!! Apparently, I'm somewaht allergic, so each time I get stung the reaction is a little worse. Not surprisignly, I'm pretty shy around them but I do get how important their work is. I LOVE that you used the bees as a stimulus for a song. It's wonderful - I think I'm going to listen again!!
I love that song! How cute! Love your creativity.
Bees are amazing creatures. I wish we had more honeybees and less mean, nasty wasps...And I don't blame you at all from taking pictures from inside - even still I know I would feel them crawling on me.
Wow! I don't know if I would be that brave. Bees scare me! xo style, she wrote
This is incredible! I'm scared of bees but somehow this seems like a more controlled environment. :-) You have cool friends! Or at least their mum's are cool :-)
I love honey so much :D
This is so cool! You should check out Savannah Bee Company (savannahbee.com), we roast honey-roasted coffee for them, very cool company! XO!
WOW!!! I have ALOT of catching up to do! Can I just say your voice is SO BEAUTIFUL and has so much depth and loveliness....(I so wish I could sing....)
Those bees are crazy! We are actually going through a "bee shortage" around this part of the world which is scary because we need bees to pollinate just about everything on planet earth...
Your song is beautiful Kerri. Your voice so poetic in its tone...
Thank-you for sharing it with us.
Love,
Danielle xo
I've been so busy , But I'm back to visiting blogs. You are SO brave with all those bees . Yikes.
The pictures definitely give the bee charged atmosphere. great song< i'm impressed by how many you manage to write.
Oh and It was my daughter that wanted to be a mermaid when she grew up. ( I think she still does, she'd 19... tee hee)
Awww...how sweet!
We have a wee bee shortage as well because of Verroa (sp) mite. My father in law has hives though and I love to be near them! I am severely allergic however, but have this wierd sense of calm when I am around them. All very strange!
Beautiful beautiful song!
i'm sweet on that song! the bees do so much for us humans... they deserve a beautiful song like yours
both of my sister-in laws keep bees ... i will have to send a link to your song to them :)
bees are such wonderful images and inspirations for creative busyness! love your interpretation!
