Lone Ant
the lone ant marches
through the sea of green
that seems neverending
i look upon a foot of grass
.
the lone ant marches
continues on its short path
vision limited unaware of the dangers
i look upon the beetle in its path
.
the lone ant marches
still onward undeterred
it is a creature free and alone
i look upon the second ant
.
the lone ant marches
very close now to the other
it sees the water begin to fall
i look upon the dark grey sky
.
the lone ant marches
to the mound it calls its home
and so too does the other ant
i look upon them scurrying
.
the lone ant marches
closer now to home and others
the second ant approaches
i look upon the sky hoping
.
the lone cloud rumbles
and pours its feelings to the ground,
oblivious i walk inside
i look upon my house
.
the lone ant drowns.
