BEVEN THE GRUMBLE BEE
Josie Whitehead
Beven was a grumble bee,
Who liked to stay in bed,
Whilst all her elder sisters
Were up and quickly fed.
Her Mum said: 'Come on Beven,
There’s lots of work to do.
Your busy sisters go to work
And you must do so too.'
But Beven shut her eyes up
For she liked her life of ease.
She grizzled if she had to work,
And didn’t want to please.
She grunted when the day was hot
And groaned when it was cold.
She was not quite the sort of bee
Who did what she was told.
The bees returned with nectar
To find Beven getting up.
Their Mummy gave them honey drinks
Inside their little cups.
Do you think that Beven had some?
No, not likely, for you see,
The lazy bees, the grumble bees,
Get nothing for their tea.
