Ant Perseverance


Like the small ants of my little garden,
 
You shall by no means, in your lifetime, quit.
 
I will teach you to always try again,
 
Even if you're about to throw a fit.
 
 
 
 
Little ants continue on with their lives,
 
Crawling through the green grass on a mission.
 
Collecting food from others to survive;
 
They take this food with no one's permission.
 
 
 
 
If these ants ever give up, they will starve,
 
And these garden ants will cease to exist.
 
So learn, youngling, this lesson I have carved:
 
To never give in...to always persist.
 
 
 
 
Because ants still make a strong appearance,
 
They portray a strong trait: perseverance.
