On the Run

~ ON THE RUN ~
    (a little fun)

 Thrice as busy
   as any bee
 On the run
   no moment free

 Scary-disciplined
   model of industry
 Mocks lazybones
   like you and me

 You observe millions
   perhaps billions of them 
 No doubt about that!
 
   Still and all,
 Have you ever seen 
   ~ an ant pant?

Ha, ha! Great minds think alike. (Sure). I was debating between 'pant' and 'sweat' for the punch line. Holiday Cheer, Arturo! :) gw
