Teachings of An Ant

Did you ever watch an ant as it scales a hill?
Its falls and misdirections cast its iron will.
If something blocks its way, another one is found.
There's no time for delay when other ways abound.

It carries twice its weight, but seldom waits to rest
As if there were a race and each movement a test.
It talks to ants that pass, but never loses sight
Of its duties and its will to use all its might.

Common good with no place for selfish need
Is the guide as it takes just enough for its breed.
This minute ant has so much more than minute worth.
Why can't its ways be learned by humans on this earth?
