BEING TINY IN THE WILD

HELLO LITTLE LADYBUG.

It's me.

Just wondering what it must be like

Being so tiny out there in the wild.

I mean.

How do you cope,

I'm not as small as you are

Yet I feel so miniscule, and

sometimes question whether my occasional

feeling of being inconsequential is unwarranted.

How do you survive amidst the romping of large animals

Or attacks of the ones trying to harm you.

Little ladybug, you have my admiration

Because you keep on surviving.

You face everyday with a fortitude born of determination.

Hello world, you say

Here I am again today

I made it through yesterday, and the day before and the,

Well, you get the picture

All I can say is, that,

TO AN ANT

I am a giant.
