Helmeted Honeyeater

Oh eater of honey,
helmet on strong.
Mysterious, majestic hood,
Cloaking that which punishes,
your oh so peaceful life,
Those burdening, undying woes.
Dance forever with your friends,
ne'er with your careless foes.
Keep providing all you can,
pollen, power, pride.
For without you, we stand as nothing,
no one,
when nowhere can we find,
Your beauty, expression, love.
Your one of a kind wings, blessing
from above.
