Twas the night before Christmas and all through the yard,
half of the creatures were stirring,
because nature’s always on guard
The bat house was hung by the farmhouse with care since bats are nocturnal and need a cozy lair
The honeybees were nestled all snug in their hives
keeping the queen safe and warm, while risking their own lives
And the Mason bees under the leaves in their cocoons
would be waking and flying in just 3 new moons
The butterflies fast asleep in their pollinator hotel
quietly waiting for winter to end and bid it farewell
And the hummingbirds had both migrated and stayed
depending on their species and when they get laid
We had planted the bulbs and wildflower seeds
so when the pollinators awoke, they’d find all their needs
And in the distance, we heard a coyote cry out
“Merry Christmas, Good Night, and don’t forget to drip your spout!”
MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY HOLIDAYS! AND HAVE A BLESSED NEW YEAR FROM ARKEARTH!
