From Inside A Water Lily

I was sitting on my favorite lily pad, singing in the rain. The more it rained, the louder I croaked. I heard a tiny buzz coming from inside the water lily and a soft voice mumble, 'Five more minutes...'. I peeked inside and found a fuzzy bumblebee wrapped in a soft lily petal, taking a cozy little nap. Sometimes, my little bumble friends sleep inside flowers to shelter from the rain.

I gently closed the lily petals so Bumble could finish her nap. Even busy bees need their rest. I continued to watch the raindrops ripple when they hit the water. Our lily pad gently rocked in the ripples as I quietly waited five more minutes.

Croak!!
