Meet Ms Bee N Serene

Ms Bee N Serene
Chapter 3 Ms Bee N. Serene

  The next Grandmother lives in between Ms Honey Garden and Ms Peppersauce Bottom. She is Ms Bee N. Serene. Her Casita sparkles from the refection of the Sun. It is made of Aluminum and is polished to perfection; though it’s small it’s very comfy inside. The bees and butterflies all are attracted by the shinny surface and the refection of all the flower

 blossoms. Even the Hunnybirds like to build nests in her window covers. Ms Bee has no pets so the little flying bugs and birds are very welcome at Ms Bees.
   Ms Bee is a lovely old Grandmother with white hair and blue eyes. She is shortish and rounder than Honey Garden but not as rotund as Ms Peppersauce Bottom! Ms Bee likes to drum. She has a few different drums and you can hear her out in the forest making the drumming sounds of many Grandmothers before her. Drumming is a prelude to dance, and when she gets going on her rhythms all the Grandmothers cannot help themselves, they get up and dance. Sometimes in the summer and fall the Grandmothers gather on a mountaintop and look into the stars while they sit and contemplate the world and the big “circle of Fire” that illuminates the forest around them. Ms Bee is a healer of sorts and a blessing to have in your company. She wears a large brimmed straw hat with ribbons and flowers and Mexican striped serape around her shoulders with long floral print dresses and Mary Jane shoes. Crystals and brightly colored stones adorn her neck, ears, fingers, and wrists. She is not flashy exactly but she is thoughtfully put together. MS bee is a creator also; she loves to make a creation to give as a gift. Ms Peppersauce has many of her creations hanging on her walls and shelves. Their friendship has not been long but it has been very fruitful. Once they planted sacred stones and wishes all over the mountains to make good fortune come to the land. I’m thinking they should do it again!
   Ms Bee is also a diviner and she can find water with the “shaking of the sticks.” This can be very helpful because living on the river sometimes the water is going to rise! And fall!! Sometimes when there is a full moon you can find Ms Bee and the Fairy Grandmothers up on the highest mountain peaks with a large fire circle and visions of the older grandmothers sitting at their fire too, drumming, chanting and praying for all of life’s goodness to be bestrode upon the lands. Ms Bee is a leader and inspiration to all. Maybe that is why all the birds and butterflies and dragonflies are always around her dashing from flower to flower between Ms Bee and Ms Honey’s garden. I need to point out that Ms Bee is also quite good at decorating and she puts some fantastic colors and ideas together. Her Casita is so beautiful and arrangements fit the space so perfectly. All the grandmothers respect Ms Bee so very much.
