This is just a take on the thought that when we work together we can create some amazing things.
The music has to be "Antmusic" by Adam and the Ants

It Was Only A Little Ant
But It Had A Very Good Friend
Together They Carried The Plant
More Of Them Worked To The Same End

Before Long, Their First Nest Was Built
These Two Friends Became An Army
Then Grew A Tower Of Their Will
Rising For The Whole World To See

A Man Can Kill A Single Ant
But The Colony Will Survive
Togetherness Safety Will Grant

And Now They Fear No Enemy

"Small creatures with a monster drive". That was my favourite line. It was very powerful! Loved your poem!
I had to chuckle over this one, Mike, since it's warm in Florida and the damn ants are somehow getting into the kitchen and the cats' bowls. Damn ants! But fabulous and creative, I'll remember how much I like it when I spray the ants tomorrow!
The message of both "Antz" & "A Bug's Life" (love them both).
Great! Where did you have time to write so many stories?
Great!! I don't mind ants but the fire ants bite is painful!!!
Ants are amazing creatures- humans would do well to take a leaf out of their um plant
Ants are certainly a good example of teamwork and togetherness. Nice one!
And together, we do succeed. Ants teach us many things.
