The theme of Christina Georgina Rossetti's poem "Helen Grey" is, beauty isn't everything. We know this to be true because the Rossetti describes Helen Grey as "handsome" and "proud" but also says "But so you miss that modest charm / Which is the surest charm of all." This shows the reader that Helen Grey is very attractive and takes pride in her attraction. However, she has let her beauty go to her head, resulting in an unpleasant personality that no man has found her attractive. The last four lines of the poem "Helen Grey" support the its main theme by drawing the reader's attention to the reality of age and time. Time will continue to go by causing Helen to grow old, wrinkly, and gray. Time will pass and with it, Helen's beauty shall pass too. If she does not  change her ways, she will be left with and unattractive personality, and face.

In the front part, they have 2 legs and the back part they have 4 legs.The color of it's body is yellow and Black. The stringer of the Bee is very poisonous.These insects belong to the order Hymenoptera. The most common species is Apis mellifica. These are well-known for their organized social life and great economic importance. The nest of honey-bee is called bee-hive, which is commonly found on tall trees. The Bee swam is divided into three- Workers, Queen and Drones.

Worker bee forms the majority within a hive; size is very small; work in number of capacities—cleaner, nurse, builders and architects, technician, soldier and porter.

Drone bee—slightly larger than the workers; noisy and idle; comes out of the hive only at the time of nuptial flight.

Queen bee—very large with a tapering abdomen; general­ly a single matured queen is present in each hive; responsible for the laying of eggs.

A queen bee can lay 2,500 eggs in a day.In the  lifetime of a HOney bee, it will  be able to produce 1/2 teaspoon of honey.Worker bees have a 6 to 8 week lifespan.Honey bees are super-important pollinators for flowers, fruits and vegetables. This means that they help other plants grow! Bees transfer pollen between the male and female parts, allowing plants to grow seeds and fruit.

A colony of bees consists of 20,000–60,000 bees and one queen. While a queen bee can live up to 5 years, worker honey bees only live for about 6 weeks and do all the work.  Honey bees have been producing honey in the same way for over 150 million years.The only insect that produces food that humans eat is the honey bee.
