oops

Once I saw an ant
Walking upon a grid
He could not find his way
No matter what he did
To and fro he walked
Side to side he paced
Yet no matter where he trod
The same destination he faced
Becoming more and more confused
His thinking became unsound
Until I could see
His confusion was quite profound
Searching for his direction
Yet too confused to say
He lost touch with friends and family
Somewhere along the way
First one way then another
No light could he see
Until at last
He felt trapped - no more free
Slower and slower
Across the grid he moved
Until at last
All hope was removed
As I watched him falter
Sensed his hopes growing dim
A name came to mind
I would call him Jim
Just as hope was lost
His spirit all but thru
Another ant appeared
Then more came into view
Gently picking him up
With compassion plain to see
His strength was quickly restored
By the love of family
Russ

this is really good. Ive been inspired by a stuffed animal once, but it very um.. awsome, when some one can write a poem on somthing that seems so insignificant as an ant.. iim amazed by this..
