Ants

I remember as a little girl I’d sit for long periods of time Watching a simple ant hill They were interesting I’d find For they all had their duties As they’d scurry along their way All working together they were Without a single pause or delay Around for millions of years Or so the theory goes We don’t particularly like them They are quite fascinating though We squish them or we swat them To keep them all at bay When we have a picnic we’d like For them to please stay away But if you haven’t taken time To study them by any chance Set aside time to observe awhile The amazing little ants!
