Ants!
As I observed a little worker ant
(Oh how unnoticed was she)
I saw how tremendous her strength was
Carrying twenty times her own weight
And then some!
(So normal yet special)
She had broken off from all the others
And tried to support herself
(So lonely yet energetic)
Dodging rapid raindrops
And voracious predators
(So eager to live)
What an intriguing little creature
My interest and curiosity was piqued
(I saw potential in her)
Unable to see her innermost intricacies
I had acquired a magnifying glass
As I got closer to see
Her most delicate features
I peered through the magnifying glass
In delight
Feeling sorrow for her
(She burnt to a crisp)
