Ants
I've mused for hours trying to develop something brilli-ant,
And have tossed aside many topics as being irrelev-ant.
The subject of "ants" caught my fancy as being signific-ant,
Tho' 'tis a matter of which I'm somewhat ignor-ant!
I pen this with tongue in cheek and am a bit nonchal-ant,
And enter territory at which I'm very nonconvers-ant.
I'll broach the theme and maybe we'll become so cogniz-ant,
That folks'll marvel at my savvy for being so observ-ant!
I trust I'll be forgiven if I seem a bit insouci-ant,
But I relish the chance to be a little flamboy-ant!
My spouse opines that such versifying is ineleg-ant,
Mortified that folks might think me a tippling inebri-ant!
If here and there I've been some redund-ant,
And some words and phrases are not exactly trench-ant,
Please be merciful to me your humble serv-ant,
For upon the issue of "ants" I'm not a savvy sav-ant!
Hallelujah! 'Tis the end of this rhyme and I'm euphori-ant!
This verse won't win Poem of the Month per my account-ant.
But, no mind, 'tis fun now and then to play the miscre-ant,
Penning outrageous verse for which I have a "pen"ch-ant!
