I Once Saw Two Ants
I once saw two little ants
one in front and one in back
carrying on a small dance.
For the front ant was quick
as they carried a beetle load
often the back would slip.
Racing to the front from behind
the back spoke to front in excited terms
giving a piece of his ant's mind.
Cooperation is what gets job done,
gets the meal home,across this driveway,
out of this hot sun.
So learned from little ants
when I looked at life's little items
and I saw little ant's dance.
