Advice From Ants

The grass is green here

In this field

With no leaves

It makes a cushion and bed

It’s a forest to the ants

And the grass to them,

Are trees

In it they are lost or living

In the forever maze

I’m sure we can take some wisdom

From the ants

Who work hard and carry

More than they weigh

I’m sure they don’t even

Know I’m here

In my own forest
