Oh, they sound vicious, I am not aware of fire ants here where I live, great description, and you can keep them where you are! ;) Lee

I agree with your observation Sara and wonder what their purpose is in the large sceme of things!

You hit the nail on the head, they do hurt a lot when they sting...I really hate those pesky fire ants! I lived in Texas at one time and they had a lot of fire ant there as well, hated them! You have to be careful where you go outside and watch out for their homes, you don't want to disturb them unless you have some pesticide for them! This is a wondrous poem Sara, Great Work!!
