Summer Job

morning by the hill

          ants with foodstuff walk in line - 
     
                   the sun shines all day

Hi Kim! This is the same comment which I posted on your earlier poem which got deleted: "Great job done, Kim! Love the visual and the imagery. When the sun shines ants make hay! #7 hugs // paul" :)

Like the ants who respond to the deep call of nature to work - to gather, mirrors another deep call that resounds within our hearts -- a love that outshines the sun. Individually and collectively as a community, we share this generous gift life. Your words are rich food to dine upon! 7
