On Christmas Eve we stood in the kitchen listening to the bees. The bass-buzz of hive was accompanied by the falsetto whine of a cheese-filled fridge, and the percussion of cutlery in the sink.
“I was reading that bees have dreams,” said Katie, “what do you think they dream about?”
We guessed they dreamt of light and flight and flowers. It was impossible to know, but, in our imaginations, bees always dream of magic.
