Ants, Ants, Ants,,,

Ants, Ants, Ants…

Ants, Ants, Everywhere
The rains come down
They come up stairs

Ants, Ants, Ants, Everywhere
The kitchens full of them
The cupboards now bare

Ants, Ants, Ants, Ants, Everywhere
The traps are out
Round them they dance, they don’t care

Ants, Ants, Ants, Ants, Ants,
Everywhere, Everywhere, 
EVERYWHERE!

Caren Krutsinger Date: 3/22/2019 6:25:00 AM I love the way you have made me remember the parade of ants and how they are so everywhere at the same time. Login to Reply Noel Flater Date: 3/22/2019 6:31:00 AM Caren, Last summer was the dance of the ants, the only thing that saved me was winter.

Panagiota Romios Date: 3/22/2019 5:59:00 AM Hi Noel! How goes it? Like the rhythmical sense of your poem. And which one of us at sometime, have not been besieged by them? Ugh?
