A Little Life Lesson


A Little Life Lesson

She is an inquisitive girl - not yet two,
full of energy, curiosity, and zip.
She likes to explore and investigate.
She's sweet and smart as a whip.


She plays a game outside, stacking plastic pots,
but her game suddenly comes to a stop,
when one brave, black ant marches out in front of her,
then climbs from the bottom of the stack to the top.


"Ant," she says solemnly, pointing it out to me.
"Ah, yes, I see it," I say to her, as she nods her head.
Giving the tiny creature proper recognition,
she knows that even the smallest life is important to be led.
