consider; the ant Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by kayode, Nigeria Jul 8, 2006
  Poetry

  

No ruler
No overseer
None to nudge to toil
None to crack the whip to till
No motivator
None to hail, well-done
To reward for a job well done
None indeed has the ant
Spurring itself to action
For the harsh realities of winter
The abundant opportunities of summer
The pain of sowing
For the bliss of reaping
The inconveniencies of gathering
Consumed in peaceful contentment
A tomorrow assured
Form today cultivated
Success secrets in tiny limbs
The ant
A tutor I wouldn’t pay
But it pays to consider
Practical smart ant.
