Another post about bees
Or more precisely their wax
And what to do when
you simply have stacks

Don’t throw it away
or leave it in heaps
where the honey and mess
through it all slowly seeps

Just gather it up
into one pot
the bit’s and the pieces
and heat up the lot

Together with water
to wash off the gunk
heat ’till it’s melted
and floats on the junk

The wax will go hard
as it cools in the ooze
you can then lift it off
and use as you choose

Use it for ointments
or maybe a candle
for polish and sealant
it’s hard to mishandle

You can even recycle
it back to the supplier
for the sheets in the frames
that are strengthened with wire

So think before tossing
or throwing away
this wax is worth keeping
it’s the sustainable way!
