The pedigree of honey
The Pedigree of Honey is a four-line poem that turns a bee's simple errand into a quiet lesson in perspective. While the world fusses over lineage and rank, the bee cares only for the clover in front of him, and in his eyes that humble blossom is as grand as any noble house. With playful wit and a few exact words, Dickinson sets honey, flowers and status side by side and asks what truly makes something precious.
