120 Words - Life

LIFE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the love of my life, life, its depth, its range, how rife. from high up in the air, to here and there, to where life finds a niche, takes hold! from small, to big and bold! long to tall, thin like thread, take care where you might tread! life not seen on the ground, look hard, it can be found. you might need a gem loop to stoop you must, to scoop, a gem of life so small no lens, not seen at all a wasp less than a mill so cool what a great thrill life, large, so big, so huge no tree, no whale, do muse a fun guy ate with meat in soup, like life, a treat! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2/6/18 Entered in '120 words' - Poetry Contest sponsored by Silent One Point of interest: Fun guy, fungi, personified! For those who don't know: A species of fungi found in the forests of North America can exceed 6 kilometres in diameter, but less than a mil at its thinnest and not much over at its thickest. It is the true fungi. Mushrooms, toadstools, are its fruiting bodies. Hyphal being their root-like structure, which produces their fruit. One other interesting point is that they are considered scientifically, to be closer to animals than plants, what say the Veegans?
