The labor of the honey bee

Here's another poem I dug up; this one was inspired by my research with honey bees.  It actually won a NC State University Haiku contest in 2008.  It is supposed to emphasize the amazing amount of work that goes into a pound of honey.  It's so easy to take these things for granted.

Two million flowers
The Ten-thousand mile harvest
Sweetens my pancake
