In the crisp embrace of my russet leaf patch, 
a Queen Bee reigns supreme, Her presence unmatched. 
Her saintly swarm rustles me, yet I am blessed, 
for She brings forth the chilly scent of ember rest. 

My mother immigrated from Hong Kong to America during her high school years, and continued to live here for college, through early adulthood, till now.

5 pm

Is a time of day where it's not quite night yet.

Some would say, The day is young.

Others would argue, the day is over.

They will get in their cars and drive home to their families.
