Homeward Bound

Careful to watch the small body move slowly
Grasses of delight wisp over it’s back
And the dark roots of earth lay below it.
The small twig proved a trial
As it tried to surpass - endeavoring …
Easing strength to pass the object slowly
Towards the hill , while the ant moved … homeward bound.

Juanita Tice Paulino
