Colony Collapse Disorder
In 2006, beekeepers throughout the United States began to notice something new—and troubling. Adult honeybees, known as worker bees, were disappearing from their hives, seemingly abandoning them. Few or no dead bees were found in the hives. The queen and larvae were alive and well. However, the swarm of worker bees that usually attended them to keep them alive were gone. What had happened?
The event became so widespread that it soon received a name, Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). There was no denying that CCD was a problem. After all, American farmers depend on the work of honeybees and other pollinators. At least three-quarters of the crops grown in the United States depend on honeybee pollination for their survival. These include such crops as strawberries, blueberries, apples, broccoli, asparagus, and almonds. Without them, both farmers and anyone who enjoys fresh fruits and vegetables will suffer.
But what is causing this problem? Scientists have thoroughly studied a variety of possible causes, ranging from genetically modified crops to climate change to cell phone towers. Sadly, nothing has shown to be the cause of the problem. The most likely culprits are disease-causing organisms. These have been found in larger numbers in colonies affected by CCD than in unaffected colonies. But these organisms have included various viruses and bacteria. Some were found in greater amounts in different parts of the country. If CCD is caused by a single disease, identifying that disease will be difficult.
The CCD outbreak is most likely the result of multiple causes—disease, poor diet, pesticides, lack of genetic diversity, and habitat loss. Efforts to prevent colony loss have been mildly successful. The number lost has declined each year since 2008. But until a solution to this problem is found, CCD will remain a concern that will threaten the future of bees. It will also affect the people who rely on the food that they help produce.

Why does the author use the following simile: "She rests on the crib—/ pink and soft, / like a cake in the oven"?
Answer: the swan might be a metaphor for our soul, which is ancient and timeless. the speaker wants to know where it's going and what it wants, what's the purpose in life. he asks our soul to follow him in knowing that god is us and the answer to the question "who am i" that was written on the wind of god's whim to know himself that blew over his being in the beginning of creation. and to connect to god consciously on the path to knowing him is the joy of loving him, like a bee that will grow and end our sorrows by ending desire. in that connection there is no doubt about god and existing forever.
