Bees and Rats
Rats, people call them thieves.
People hate them
because they stole our food to eat.
Bees, people like them,
Because they can make food.
We stole honey to eat,
and we call them hard working beings.
Many people say bye-bye to rats when they catch one.
Should bees do the same thing?
Maybe.
We consume their home for what?
Who is the thief now?
Did rats and other animals do anything wrong for their death?
Dying for no reason is called murder,
People say they stole things from us,
So does it count when we stole honey from bees?
Fruits from trees?
And resources from nature?
Can all of these be a reason,
So should we also end up like a rat?
People like things that can bring us benefits,
And dislike things which are bad for us,
We like bees only because they pollinate,
and they make honey.
Killing a being for no reason is to murder,
When we spray insects and animals with chemicals to kill them,
It is called murder.
If bees don't make honey and pollinate,
What would it end up with
when we see it's hive in our garden?
