DELBERT WONDERS ABOUT SIZE

Thor is the biggest horse I have ever seen.  He does a lot of work for Farmer Tom Thimble.  But he is also a dear friend to Lina and the fairies.  When I was growing up bees were supposed to talk to bees, dogs to dogs, cats to cats, people to people.  You weren't suppose to mingle with those "not of your kind"  I really think that is a silly idea.  I like the way it is at Thimblewyck.  Anybody can talk, really talk, to anybody.  Sometimes I feel tired and down and can't find another bee who has time for me.  But Thor will usually listen.  I suppose that is because he has such big ears.  Maybe size isn't that important. Nor shape of wings, or whatever.  But I do know Lina worried a lot about being small at first.  I promise to listen to others more this year.  My buzz doesn't need to send a message that I am too busy to talk.  Here's to good friends and good conversations.  Well, I gotta go now.  I'll share my buzz later.
