Tenacious black ant Steadily builds his ant hill Wind soon knocks it flat! ............................. Moonbeams radiate As the veiling cloud has past Playful shadows dance! D.L.White :^) |

Gosh! We just sprayed our backyard for ants...the horrible little beasts were biting our dogs....but they were red ants, surely not as lovable as a black one. I like your Haiku btw.  |

aw the poor ant... a real tear jerker. really enjoyed the poem. A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry |
